INDIANAPOLIS -- Myles Turner walked onto center stage Wednesday night -- and looked as comfortable in his starring role.The Indiana Pacers second-year center scored 30 points, tied his career high with 16 rebounds, blocked four shots and made a 3-pointer in overtime that started the decisive 8-0 run in his first opening night start.If Turner keeps this up, the Pacers could be celebrating a lot more than just a 130-121 season-opening victory over the Dallas Mavericks.I was talking to some of my friends about and they were saying `Take it easy on Dallas tonight, Turner said. It was cool to go out like that against my hometown team. After the final buzzer sounded, everything hit me. It was just like, `Wow, I just did that.Before the game, new coach Nate McMillan told reporters he expected NBA teams to defend Turner differently this season and said his budding 20-year-old star would have to adapt. He looked just fine against the Mavs.In a game that was supposed to be all about the Pacers revamped roster and new up-tempo style, Turner stole the show by making 13 of 19 shots, coming up with big play after big play and overshadowing All-Stars Paul George and Dirk Nowitzki.George added 25 points, including another 3 with 55 seconds left to seal Indianas fifth season-opening win in six years.I loved the fight our guys showed in that overtime, McMillan said.Deron Williams led Dallas with 25 points. J.J. Barea and Nowitzki each had 22 as the Mavs lost their fifth in a row in the series.Dallas only led twice all night but managed to force overtime when Harrison Barnes open 3 tied the score at 115 with 2.3 seconds left.Turner could have won it in regulation with a long buzzer-beating 3, but the shot bounced off the back of the rim.He did a little bit of everything to hurt us, Dallas coach Rick Carlisle said of Turner. It was not just one thing he did. He was active and he got the ball in the basket.TIP-INSMavericks: Barnes and Andrew Bogut, the two former Golden State Warriors, finished with 19 points and six points, respectively, in their Dallas debuts. ...

Six different players attempted at least six 3s for the Mavs. Indiana, in contrast, was 10 of 19 on 3s and no player attempted more than five.WELCOME BACK, COACHMcMillan was just as anxious as his new players to get started. McMillan had been the head coach previously in Seattle and Portland, but spent the previous three seasons as Frank Vogels top assistant in Indiana. I was surprised he was away from that position as long as he was, Carlisle said. Hes a great coach, and I know him well, personally, too. Hell do a great job.UP NEXTMavericks: Dallas hosts a longtime rival in Houston on Friday night. It is the second of three meetings between the Texas teams during a 12-day span in October.

PETERSBURG, Fla. BOSTON -- Drew Smyly has a chance to break a team record Wednesday when he closes the Tampa Bay Rays three-game series with the Red Sox at Fenway Park.The left-hander, who faces Steven Wright as he tries to help his team win the three-game series in the rubber game, has thrown 20 1/3 straight scoreless innings -- eight this season -- against the Red Sox. The Rays record is the 25 1/3 straight spun by Matt Garza against the Toronto Blue Jays in 2008.Smyly, who pitched eight innings of one-hit ball with 11 strikeouts against Boston in April, comes into this start 6-11 on the season. But he is 4-0 with a 2.82 ERA in his last seven, lowering his season ERA from 5.64 to 4.80, and going at least six innings in all seven starts.Smyly shook off a shaky first inning that saw him throw 34 pitches, and needed only 55 more to get through the next five in his last start, a no-decision against the Houston Astros.I guess I was just nibbling a little bit in the first couple of innings, Smyly said after that game. Just missing. Got behind in the count. Made it hard on myself. But I was happy to get out of the first with just two runs. My pitch count was up, so in my head I was just thinking attack, go right at them and see how long you can last.The last-place Rays lost that game.Smyly is 3-1 with a 1.48 ERA in nine games -- seven starts -- against the Red Sox lifetime, 1-1 with a 1.71 ERA in four aappearances at Fenway.ddddddddddddOnly two of Bostons better hitters have done well against Smyly -- David Ortiz 5-for-14 and Mookie Betts 5-for-15. Dustin Pedroia is 2-for-16, Xander Bogaerts 3-for-15, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Travis Shaw both 1-for-9 and Brock Holt 1-for-7.Wright makes his second start since coming back from a shoulder injury suffered diving back into second base as a pinch runner in Los Angeles, gave up five runs on seven hits, walking three and striking out one, against the Kansas City Royals in his return last Friday night.He struggled with his delivery early in that game but was, like Smyly, better as the game went on.It was fair to say that the first inning or two ... he was trying to establish a release point after some down time, manager John Farrell said before Tuesday nights game. He really settled in after that and was, I think, very sharp the final four innings, with the normal action and violence to his knuckleball.Wright, one of the pleasant surprises that have helped the Red Sox back into contention after another last-place finish, is 13-6 with a 3.18 ERA -- 9-2, 3.62 in his last 14 starts.This will be the first time hes faced the Rays, but comes in 6-3 with a 1.89 ERA in nine career starts against the American League East.
