Evan Turner smiled when it was noted how often he brought the ball up the court and initiated the offense against Purdue on Tuesday night.

"I grew up playing point guard. I just think it's fun, really fun, to be able to come off ball screens and create and make your teammates better.
"I'm sure I'll have the opportunity to play point guard further down the line with this team."
Further down the line might be no farther.
