Paolo Banchero Notches A Double-Double Against Charlotte
2 years agoOrlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero recorded his eighth double-double of the season on Sunday, contributing a team-high 22 points and 10 rebounds in a 119-113 victory over the Hornets. He also had five assists and one steal for a nice line in 35 minutes, but Banchero's recent shooting struggles continued. He was 6-for-20 from the field with a 0-for- 4 record from deep and only managed to get past the 20-point mark with a good 10-for-11 effort at the foul line. The top pick of last year's draft is shooting a miserable 25.9 percent across his last three outings. Banchero hasn't managed to shoot better than 30 percent from the field in five of his last six games, so he's in a really bad shooting slump right now. Hopefully, a run of three straight home games helps him to get back on track.
