In his latest outing, Paolo Banchero has matched records that even LeBron James and Stephen Curry couldn’t achieve

In the Orlando Magic’s latest game, Paolo Banchero matched records that even LeBron James and Stephen Curry couldn’t. Banchero became the first player since Grant Hill to start their career with 4 straight 20+ point games. In the Magic’s against the New York Knicks, Banchero scored 21 points to match this incredible record.

Paulo Banchero is looking to be a fantastic talent and has adapted well to NBA-level basketball. Many analysts believed that Banchero would struggle to score as a rookie and so far he has proven them wrong.

Although Banchero is not shooting that efficiently, his 3-pointer will become more accurate with time. The important thing is that Paolo Banchero has shown the promise of a player drafted with the first overall pick. He’s been aggressive with the ball in hand and has been alright on defense for a rookie.

The Magic have lost all of their games so far and are likely to be a lottery team this year. They have many talented young prospects and in a few years may be a team to watch out for.
