Myles Turner is certainly an NBA player, he is nonetheless a human being like everyone else, he has his personal passions. One of them ? Build gigantic Lego pieces. He even offered himself a replica of himself in Darth Vader version. You do what you want with that.
– “Myles, what are you doing following the game? Because with all the guys we planned to go have a drink on the terrace, just to build cohesion. »
– « Sorry guys, I have Lego”
Appreciate the excuse. Since it’s not enough for Myles Turner to spend his evenings doing construction in NBA rackets, he works overtime at home to satisfy his construction desires. He has already stuffed the Titanic some time ago, proof that the guy is far from being a joker who helps the son from time to time to close the fire station or the post office. No, the guy attacks Jack and Rose directly, no time. Besides, no more time for the boats either, it’s time to have fun in ego-trip mode. Passed by an artist specializing in Lego statues, Myles Turner therefore offered himself a life-size replica of himself in Darth Vader mode. We say to ourselves that getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom half in a daze and coming across this statue might cause heart attacks… Afterwards, seeing that a guy like Turner openly shares his passion on his networks shows that he’s really into his trip. And that’s pretty cool, the vibes sent are good even if the hobby remains WTF.
Moreover, it is a passion that takes time. We talked to you regarding simple overtime, but we would have done better to mention a full-time permanent contract. MT confides in his post that it took more than 1000 hours of work to complete the statue, that’s to like the detail and the things well done. Come on, we’re teasing, but Myles isn’t the only one to have slightly quirky personal trips. We will even say that his remains relatively nice. The NBA has in the past had its share of players with sometimes… very strange passions. In a paper now ten years old, Bleacher Report presented the list of weirdest kiffs in the league, hang on tight. We learn that Ron Artest is a fan of dental procedures (???), that Kevin Love really likes to dress up as Elmo and that Tim Duncan spends his evenings playing Dungeons & Dragons, a tabletop role-playing game. Wait two seconds, our WTFometer is smoking.
There you go, you have your dose of anything for the day. We don’t know if Myles Turner has planned to fight a duel with his alter ego made of small bricks, but what is certain is that he has fun with all that… and that’s the main thing.
