113. Paolo the 21-Year-Old All-Star! Magic Survive Rough January; Orlando 25-23

The Orlando Magic are 25-23 after enduring the challenging month of January. Orlando is still over .500 as a new month and hopefully less difficult schedule enters the picture. The Magic are the 8th seed in the East, but can easily still surpass Miami and win the Southeast division title. 21-year-old Paolo Banchero, in his 2nd NBA season, just got selected by the coaches to his 1st All-Star Game! P5 is the ninth Magic player in franchise history to make an All-Star Game. The Magic are the only franchise in NBA history to have 4 All-Stars aged 21 or younger (Shaq, Tracy, Dwight, and now Paolo). No debate, this is fully deserved from the former #1 Draft pick and Rookie of the Year. 23 ppg, 7 rpg, 5 apg is impressive for a sophomore in the Association. And he didn’t need a single nationally televised game to receive respect. The trade deadline is next week, what needs do the Magic have? All of that and more! #LetsGoMagic Warning: Adult Language
