One Pacers insider gives a case for them to trade Turner at next week's trade deadline. Dustin Dopirak of the IndyStar believes that a cap crunch is the best reason for them to deal him.

The Indiana Pacers have an issue with Myles Turner's impending free agency. He's a free agent for the first time in his career. This trade proposal would see him sent to the Western Conference while the Pacers solve their long-term problem at that spot.
