If Myles Turner leaves the Indiana Pacers, there will be several teams fighting hard to land him.
Of those teams, the Los Angeles Lakers have the best chance to get Turner, according to Bovada, per NBACentral.
The Lakers currently hold -120 odds for Turner, followed by the Sacramento Kings with +325, the Dallas Mavericks with +600, the Golden State Warriors (+600), and the Miami Heat (+650).
All of these teams would be elated to have Turner on their roster, but will any of them be successful in their pursuits?

Why is there sudden chatter about Turner leaving the Pacers?
He is set to become a free agent after this season, which means he could be available before the deadline.
It seems that Turner’s name gets tossed around in rumors around this time every single year.
And the Lakers have wanted him for a very long time, so it’s not surprising to see them attached to him again.
But a lot of things have to happen before Turner is in Los Angeles.
First of all, they would need the assets that Indiana desires.
Secondly, the Lakers would also need reassurance that he won’t be leaving in the summer, especially if they give up big assets.
Every other team on this list would also have to offer a lot to get Turner and the Pacers could be a difficult team to negotiate with.
He is averaging 15.4 points and 6.8 rebounds per game for the Pacers this year.
Turner might end up staying in Indiana, but if he doesn’t, any of these teams would be lucky to have him.
