Former Texas Longhorn Great Men will fight in the NBA Playoff Second Round Series

The second round of the NBA playoffs 2025 begins on Sunday, and the Texas Longhorns will have an important representation in a series, especially in a series. When the Cleveland Cavaliers organize the Indiana Pacers in game 1, the former Longhorns Jarrett Allen and Myles Turner will compete against counter -start centers.

Allen, a long horn in the 2016-17 season, is a crucial piece for Cleveland and ended the regular season with 13.5 points per game and 9.7 rebounds per game. In her first round of the Miami Heat, all of the four games recorded double-digit points, including an output of 22 points in game 3, and served as a defense force alongside the power striker Evan Mabley.

In Texas, everyone had on average quite similar to Cleveland, which he did in Cleveland. He received all-Big 12 of the third team, although it was a disappointing season for Texas under Shaka Smart and the 22nd place was designed by the Brooklyn Nets in 2017.

Against him, Turner has been a central member of the Pacers since his 2014-15 collegiate season. He was selected in the 2015 NBA design after deserving 12 newcomers of the year in Texas Big 12 in his only year. This regular season in Indianapolis achieved an average of 15.6 points and took second place in Blöcken in Blöcken and set 2.0 shots per game.

In the games 4 and 5 of the first round of the Pacers against the Milwaukee Bucks, Turner scored 23 or 21 points to help Indiana secure their place in this upcoming collision of the second round.

In regular games they faced their current teams, and the two centers each won six out of 12 games. You have never confronted yourself in the playoffs. While everyone thrives in color as a league manager in the Field Goal percentage, Turner shines as a more versatile goal scorer and shoots impressive 39.6 percent from three-point land in this regular season.

A third long horn will take part in the series, even more through a mentoring rotation role. The Big Man Tristan Thompson from Cavaliers is after a nine-year first stint in his second stint in the team, which included the NBA championship run 2016. The Canadian was also a one-and-done college player who received Big 12 Freshman of the Year honors and became the fourth overall election in the 2011 NBA design.

Thompson is not expected to influence the series as much as the other two Texas products. All and Turner's fight down are undeniably a crucial matchup with which they cut off against each other to determine the result of the series.
