Myles Turner posts season-high 42.8 fantasy points in loss to Boston

Fantasy basketball: Turner's efficient 12-4-9-6-2-2 line in 36 minutes Wednesday makes him a streaming target for the Bucks' final game this week.

Myles Turner posted 12 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks and 4 threes on 4-of-6 shooting with 1 turnover in 36 minutes as a starter in Wednesday's 109-102 loss to Boston. The line was worth 42.8 fantasy points, compared to 25.1 over his previous 7 games, and came with nine more minutes than his recent average of 26.9.

The performance offers streaming appeal in both nine-category and points leagues for managers chasing big peripheral numbers. Turner's 2 steals, 2 blocks and 4 threes in a single outing far exceeded his usual defensive contributions, while the 6 assists matched his season high. His efficiency (4-of-6 shooting, 1 turnover) and expanded workload make him a short-term add for the Bucks' one game left this week on Wednesday.

Player by player

Myles Turner

Turner's 36 minutes represented a significant workload increase for a player averaging 26.9 minutes over his previous 7 games, and he made the most of it with 4 threes, 2 steals and 2 blocks alongside 12 points and 9 rebounds. The 6 assists matched his season high and helped push his fantasy total to 42.8 points, compared to his recent 25.1 average over his previous 7 games. He shot 4-of-6 from the field with just 1 turnover, a clean outing that boosted categories across the board.

The centre has started all 8 games this season but had been averaging just 8.0 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists over his previous 7 outings, making Wednesday's playmaking surge stand out. His 15.9 per cent usage rate and 47.3 per cent true shooting suggest limited offensive involvement, but the peripheral categories (2.8 blocks, 1.5 threes per game this season) keep him relevant in nine-category formats. Milwaukee has one game left this week on Wednesday, making Turner a streaming option for managers needing blocks, threes and defensive stats.

What to do

• Stream Turner for the Bucks' final game this week on Wednesday if you need blocks, threes and defensive stats in nine-category leagues.

• Add Turner in points leagues where his 42.8 fantasy points Wednesday signal streaming value despite his 25.7 projected average.

• Target Turner's peripheral categories (2.8 blocks, 1.5 threes per game) rather than his modest scoring (8.5 points per game this season).
