111. Paolo the Star; Injuries; Jersey Retirements; Kill Center; Magic 20-15

The Orlando Magic are 20-15 and in the middle of a brutal portion of its schedule while being decimated by injuries and illness, but that’s OK because Paolo Banchero is a star. The 21-year-old is almost a lock to be an All-Star in February, and he just had back-to-back insane performances: A career-high 43-point game in a double overtime loss in Sacramento, and a 30-point triple-double (first of his career) in an insane victory in Denver against the defending NBA champion Nuggets. Paolo is a stud, and the rest of the world is finding out. Amway Center is now the Kia Center (‘Kill Center’). Injuries, particularly the loss of Franz Wagner for a few weeks will be painful, but which other Magic player injuries hurt more. Why Wendell Carter Jr. is currently not the best Magic center on the roster. The Magic have decided to retire player jerseys now. In its 35th season of existence, the franchise will raise the #32 of Shaquille O’Neal to the arena rafters. Should this be happening? What other Magic players will and should have their jerseys retired? All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language
