Saw some people mentioning on Twitter as well that in all likelihood Myles will end up in the legacy video played before each game.
edit: The article also mentions that this contract will run through Turners 10th season with the franchise. Only five players in franchise history have spent a full decade with the franchise: Reggie Miller (18 seasons), Jeff Foster (13), Rik Smits (12), Vern Fleming (11), and Dale Davis (10).

Turner has been a part of three distinct eras of Pacers basketball – the end of the PG era and the short struggle period afterwards, the Vic/Domas era, and this one. He came into the league super young and has proven over and over again that he can be the spine of a really good defense. He might not be the superstar some of our fans expect him to be, but I guarantee he’ll be remembered as fondly as Smits or the Davis twins were by young fans of the Pacers.
He’s one of the few Pacers players who has never expressed any doubts or reservations about playing in a small market and has embraced the city in a way that nobody really has since Reggie.
