Early life and high school

Turner was born in Houston, Texas, and grew up in the south-central area of South Park without a father and with a sick mother. As an adolescent, Turner missed a lot of school and was often getting into trouble, but basketball provided a positive outlet. He attended South Park BallCats, a basketball academy run by Turner's guardian and father figure Keith Perry.[1]

Turner attended South Park's Jesse H. Jones High School, where as a junior in 2007–08, he averaged 16.0 points, 9.5 rebounds and 4.5 blocks per game for the school's basketball team. As a senior in 2008–09, he averaged 16.5 points and earned district MVP honors in addition to being named to the all-state and all-region teams. He also played in the THSCA All-Star Game as a senior and led his team to a 29–7 record and the district title.[2]

College career

After he was initially deemed ineligible to play college basketball by the NCAA to begin the 2009–10 season, Turner began practicing with the Texas A&M Aggies in December 2009 and appeared in the final 20 games of the season off the bench. He averaged 2.9 points and 2.6 rebounds in just under 10 minutes per game. On February 3, 2010, he recorded four points and two offensive rebounds in a win over Missouri, including a slam dunk that made ESPN's top 10 plays list and was voted the Big 12 Play of the Week.[2][3]

As a sophomore in 2010–11, Turner appeared in 32 games, starting one, and averaged 13.4 minutes, 4.0 points and 3.2 rebounds per game. He also led the team in blocks and was fifth in rebounds. In his first career start on February 26, 2011, he recorded six points and four rebounds in a loss to Baylor.[2]

As a junior in 2011–12, Turner appeared in all 32 games, starting 16, and averaged 21.6 minutes, 9.1 points and a team-high 5.5 rebounds per game. He was also the team leader in field-goal percentage (118-of-206, 57.3 percent) and ranked second in blocks (14). In the first two games of the season, he had two 20-point outings for the first time in his career, and on December 7, he recorded his first career double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds in a win over Sam Houston.[2][4]

As a senior in 2012–13, Turner played all 33 games and started all but one. He averaged 23.4 minutes per game and recorded three double-doubles to give him seven for his career. He also compiled 303 points to finish third on the squad with 9.2 per game and pulled down 206 rebounds to average 6.2 per game. He finished with 536 career rebounds, the 20th most in program history. On November 15, he scored a season-high 17 points in a win over Prairie View A&M.[2][5]
