Pacers Need Miles Healthy to Bolster Rotation

Miles began the 2015-16 season as a member of the starting rotation. As Myles Turner continued to develop, though, former head coach Frank Vogel inserted the young power forward into his first unit, thus pushing Paul George to the 3 and Miles to the bench.

Miles entered the 2016-17 campaign as George's understudy at small forward.

While the 29-year-old isn't one of Indiana's most important players, he provides a nice spark for short stretches, and his three-point shooting is valuable, given how few reliable options the Pacers have beyond the arc.
