Paolo Banchero To Play Some Center In World Cup
9 months agoOrlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero will get some action at the center position with Team USA in the FIBA World Cup. It's an interesting development to monitor, as the 20-year-old saw very little run at the 5 in Orlando's crowded frontcourt during his rookie season. That's unlikely to change much in 2023-24 even with Bol Bol out of the picture, as the Magic still feature Wendell Carter Jr. as the starting center with capable backups Goga Bitadze and Moritz Wagner off the bench. If Banchero ever receives center eligibility, fantasy managers who punt the turnover statistic in category leagues could view the playmaking wing as an even more attractive draft target.
