Paolo Banchero is entering his fourth season with the Orlando Magic. He has a high aim for this season. He is eyeing taking the Eastern Conference by storm.

Before the season tipped off, the Magic reaffirmed their belief in their young star. Banchero agreed to a five-year maximum rookie contract extension.

However, during the Magic’s second preseason game against the Philadelphia 76ers at Wells Fargo Center, Banchero had an unexpected courtside encounter. A fan sitting near the court shouted by urging him to score two more points. Rather than brushing it off, Banchero called out the fan for betting on a preseason game.

“You’re betting on preseason bro? You’re addicted. It’s preseason bro, relax,” Banchero said.

Banchero and Magic later ended the game with a 128-98 win. The Magic blew out the 76ers in the second half to secure their second win. Banchero scored 13 points, four rebounds, and two assists in 23 minutes. Wendell Carter Jr. was the lead scorer with 20 points, 13 rebounds, and three assists.

This offseason, Orlando made a big move by acquiring Desmond Bane from the Memphis Grizzlies. Paolo Banchero expressed his excitement about the addition in a recent interview.

“It’s a great fit for who we are as a team. He adds what we’re missing, and he also adds to what we already have. It’s like the perfect match. We don’t have anybody who can make shots like him, who can kind of leverage the way he is able to make shots, then make plays for others and get downhill and create. He is stronger than 99 percent of the guards in the league with how he’s built. He’s going to fit into what we do,” Banchero said.

The Magic have improved to 2-0 following their second preseason victory. The team’s strong start is already fueling excitement among fans for the standout season that Banchero has been aiming for.
