👀Pacers President: Team is ready to pay high luxury tax for Turner but he decides to sign the Bucks
President of basketball operations Kevin Prichard was interviewed and talked about the departure of center Miles Turner, who had played for ten years, who signed the Bucks with a four-year contract of 107 million.
"I don't want to talk specifically about the details of Myers (departure) because the fact is that he has dedicated a wonderful decade to us. Here I'm really happy that he played for us and I hope we can keep our friendship for a long time," said Prichard. "What I know is that Herb (Pacers owner Herb Simon) and the Simon family are fully prepared to pay a high luxury tax to keep him, we really want to do that, and we negotiate with sincerity, but he's a complete free agent."
"His departure was a bit surprising, I don't know how Milwaukee (the Bucks) made it happen? I don't know if you know, we often say in the conference room: There are 'courts with payspace' in the league, 'courts with payspace' - you can get it through a buyout or a trade, but it's getting very challenging, so I have to pay tribute to Milwaukee."
"I think the most important thing is that we were having a deep conversation with Miles at the time and then... Then we see that he accepted the offer from Milwaukee. Again, this is a challenging part of the industry. "
