The outdated adage held true on Thursday evening when the upstart Orlando Magic<\/a> narrowly escaped the defending champion Golden State Warriors<\/a>, 130-129. <\/p>\n

The Magic \u2013 due to their supreme size and youthful fervor \u2013 have turn out to be a fan favourite across the Association. The headliner of this younger core is none apart from first-overall decide Paolo Banchero, who, after his 22-point 8-rebound efficiency Thursday evening, earned himself one other fan in former Defensive Player of the Year Draymond Green<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Draymond Green on Paolo Banchero, who’s averaging 22.7 factors via 9 profession video games: \u201cI think that was the most confident I\u2019ve ever seen an Orlando Magic team\u2026I think that\u2019s in large part to Paolo\u2019s demeanor and what he\u2019s brought into this building.\u201d pic.twitter.com\/zA8iY2UHqL<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI 100 percent agree with him being the number one pick,\u201d Green advised the media after the Warriors\u2019 one-point defeat by the hands of Banchero and the Magic. \u201cA Seattle kid \u2013 those guys breathe basketball. Paolo\u2019s a special guy. He hit some tough shots tonight\u2026that\u2019s why he\u2019s the number one pick.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holy Paolo<\/p>\n

a stepback bucket,
a quick break finger roll,
two spinning middies
and two fouls <\/p>\n

Green went on to attribute the Magic\u2019s newfound aggressive fireplace to the arrival of Banchero.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really love his demeanor,\u201d Green advised reporters. \u201cThat team hasn\u2019t won many games. I think that was their second win of the season. But they are competing, and if you are watching these games, they are not getting blown out anymore. They\u2019re right there, and they\u2019re learning how to win. And if I\u2019m being honest, I think [Banchero\u2019s] demeanor and who he is has a lot to do with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Green believes that others \u2013 together with Head Coach Jamahl Mosley \u2013 deserve credit score for the franchise\u2019s revival, but in addition provides that Banchero\u2019s enthusiasm for the sport could also be permeating into the spirit of these round him. <\/p>\n
