Myles Turner is one of the longest-tenured players on the Indiana Pacers. The NBA veteran has become a leader for the franchise. However, sometimes, the leader’s like to have little fun with the masses. After the end of Bennedict Mathurin’s rookie season, Turner had a little fun with the rookie. Turner and others from the team decided to give Mathurin a treat for all his hard work this season. But the gift may have not been what Mathurin was looking for.

Mathurin was welcomed to the parking lot by the team and his newly wrapped vehicle. No, the vehicle wasn’t wrapped like a present. But rather layered in plastic wrap. Turned filmed the entire prank, and it was worth it. Mathurin’s reaction was exactly what you would expect it to be. Shocked and hiding his anger from the situation he was dealing with. As Mathurin attempted to tear off the wrap, Turner and his teammates shared a great laugh. Another moment in the life of a rookie.

Myles Turner Has Become A Pacers Leader

Aside from giving the rookies a hard time, Turner has become the focal point of the Pacers. The former Texas Longhorn finished the season in the top 3 in points, rebounds, and blocked shots for the team. Turner’s name has been involved in trade talks for the last few seasons. However, it seems he is enjoying his time in Indiana. The Pacers would love to see their recent youth movement help Turner lead the organization to a playoff spot next season.

For all you NBA rookies, be on the lookout for a veteran like Myles Turner. It’s a long season for these guys. So moments like this are cherished commodities for all the guys. Mathurin was a good sport with the prank. At least, as far as we know. I wonder how LaMelo Ball would feel seeing one of his exotic cars in this shape? Do you think the prank was all in good fun? Or do you believe it may have gone too far? Let us know in the comment section. For the latest NBA news, stay right here at HNHH.
