Paolo Banchero Making More Progress
17 seconds agoOrlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (oblique) remains out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 22-year-old was having an MVP-caliber season, averaging 29.0 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 5.6 assists. However, he suffered a torn oblique in the October 30 matchup with the Chicago Bulls and has missed the last 25 games. Fortunately, he's moving in the right direction, with Banchero spotted at shootaround on Monday and doing some "spot shooting." With that in mind, he could be back sometime in the next few weeks. It could take him a few games to get back to his pre-injury workload. But with Franz Wagner (oblique) sidelined, Banchero could be even more productive once he's back on the floor.
