The Indiana Pacers have signed Myles Turner to a new multi-year deal, per their official website.

The team made the announcement on Monday but, due to team policy, did not disclose any details of the deal. However, it is reported to be a four-year contract worth $72-$80 million by outside sources.

The 6ft 11in forward/center was selected as the 11th overall pick by the Pacers in the 2015 NBA Draft and has averaged 12.7 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game over the span of his career with the team.

Turner had his best scoring season in 2016-2017, averaging 14.5 ppg on 51 percent shooting from the field, but last season saw his average drop to 12.6 points a game on 48 percent shooting. His 1.8 blocks per game, though, ranked third in the league for the second straight season.

“I’d like to thank the Simon family and the Pacers organization for giving me this opportunity,” the player said after inking his new deal.

“It took a lot of hard work to get here and I didn’t do it on my own; I’d like to thank my family, as well as my teammates, past and present, and the coaching staff for helping me get to this point. I’m excited to build here in Indiana and I’m looking forward to the future.”

The team's president of basketball operations Kevin Pritchard was also full of praise for the 22-year-old, who will begin his fourth season with the Pacers this week.

“Myles has been great here, not only on the court; but he represents this organization unbelievably off the court as well,” Pritchard said. “His hard work and dedication to both his game and to our franchise exemplify what it means to be a Pacer. We’re thrilled to have him here long term.”

Turner could be considered a veteran at 22, given he's the longest-serving player on the Pacers' roster at the moment. He is projected to have a big season for the side and will hope to help fire them to the Playoffs next year after doing so last term.
