6. Myles Turner

Myles Turner is capable of helping the Golden State Warriors in a number of ways. In addition to being an elite shot-blocker, he is one of the best stretch bigs in basketball and the perfect player to fill in the center position for Golden State.

Turner hit the 11th most 3-pointers of any center in the league this season and shot a reliable 34.4 percent on these attempts. In the era of space-and-pace, Turner is a valuable asset to have in the frontcourt.

However, his greatest trait is his rim protection. Turner rejected 133 shots this season, the fifth most across the NBA. Last season, he led the entire league in blocks. He would instantly become the best shot blocker on the Warriors.

It’s easy to see how Turner’s two-way game would fit with the Dubs. Now that the Indiana Pacers are in panic mode due to Victor Oladipo, Turner could become available.
