Myles Turner didn't say exactly what his in-season trips back home to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex used to be like when he was a younger man with less responsibility, only vaguely hinting that a certain development in his life has made them more low key.

Myles Turner had season highs with 30 points and 11 rebounds while going over 8,000 career points, Tyrese Haliburton had a season-best 25 points and 12 assists and the Indiana Pacers beat the Dallas Mavericks 134-127 on Monday night.

Indiana opened the lead back up to nine in the early portion of the third quarter as the Pacers' offense stayed hot, but an 8-0 run for the Mavs right back down to one. Back-to-back threes by Myles Turner, who was giving fits to the Mavs with his spacing, gave them a little bit of a cushion again, though.
