Turner Shines As Pacers Top Wizards

Last updated on Tuesday, December 11, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - Myles Turner racked up a season-high 26 points, 12 rebounds and five blocks as the Indiana Pacers earned their fourth straight win with a 109-101 victory over the Washington Wizards.

Bojan Bogdanovich added 22 points while Tyreke Evans had 18. Darren Collison recorded a 10 point and 17 assist double-double as the Pacers shot just under 54 percent from the field and knocked down 50 percent from 3-point range.

"Myles did a hell of a job controlling the paint for us," Thaddeus Young said after finishing with 14 points and 12 rebounds. "He altered a lot of shots. We need to thank him tonight, he's our hero."

Bradley Beal led the Wizards with a game-high 30 points while All-Star guard John Wall was held out of the game due to a sore left foot.

The Pacers will try to run their win streak to five and finish off their homestand a perfect 3-0 when they host Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday.
