Myles Turner says Giannis Antotekounmpo 'showed up whenever he wants' for Bucks
The 10-year Indiana Pacers big man says his first season with the Milwaukee Bucks came with a culture shock ... and not in a good way.
Myles Turner changed teams last summer. He didn't know it at the time, but he was also changing cultures. Turner signed a four-year, $108 million free agent contract with the Milwaukee Bucks , leaving the Indiana Pacers after 10 seasons.
On his " Game Recognize Game " podcast with WNBA star Breanna Stewart , Turner said it didn't take long for him to learn the Bucks ran things differently. "(Coach) Doc Rivers, he didn't fine anybody," Turner said. "Guys were late all the time.
Guys showed up to (watch) film whenever they wanted to show up. Guys were missing meetings. It was one of the craziest things I've ever experienced.
"If the plane took off at 2 o'clock, we weren't leaving until 4:30. I'm being so serious, bro. It was crazy.
