Poor Evan Turner. Hard to imagine a player's value plummeting more over the course of a season than his has. Evan had a chance to shine in a featured role for the Sixers, but was traded to the Pacers, ruined their team chemistry, got in a fist fight with Lance Stephenson, barely played in the playoffs, then ran out of gas driving his Ferrari on a highway. Usually NBA guys play BETTER in their contract years, but not Evan … he is a different bird. And apparently some teams are actually in the market for this type of rare fowl. ESPN beat man Jeff Goodman reporting:
Evan Turner has received interest from Boston and Minnesota, a source told ESPN.

I still think Evan can be a useful rotation player on a decent squad, so I hope he can refind his footing. Sure, he was disappointing, but I don't think he wronged Sixers fans. However, if he does go to the Celtics, I hope it works out horribly.
