Everyone has hobbies, even the busiest people in this world often find the time to pursue their passions, big or small. NBA athletes are no different in that aspect, and unlike a lot of other professionals, have the money to pursue their hobbies no matter how expensive they may be. Indiana Pacers star Myles Turner recently revealed his on TikTok and it’s not what would you would probably expect from a bruising big man.
Turner seemingly loves to build LEGO sets, and not just small houses or anything of the sort, but huge replicas of some of the most iconic movie castles, ships, and spaceships. In a video on TikTok, Turner showed off his many completed sets, jokingly referring to them as his ladies as part of a trend.
Most of these being made out of more than 2,000 pieces is incredibly impressive and will have taken Turner a lot of time to assemble. A lot of NBA players are into wine, sneakers, watches, things of that nature, but not a lot of hobbies take as much dedication as Turner’s love for LEGOs. NBA fans loved it, and reactions were filled with some admiration and some jokes.
thehippykid: “Makes sense he always leads the league in blocks.”

Juls317: “God damn I want that Titanic set.”
Greg_Davies: “I love my big shot-blocking brick-building boi.”
blagaa: “How can a guy that big work with tiny legos?”
Seeing one of the best athletes in the world enjoy a simple hobby is always great and important in terms of letting people know that they’re allowed to enjoy whatever they like. There has been some interest in Turner from around the league and while his blocking and inside play are obviously the main reason, it doesn’t hurt that he now comes across as a really fun guy!
