Rookie Paolo Banchero collected 21 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists to lift the host Orlando Magic to their first win of the season on Friday, courtesy of a 113-93 victory over the Charlotte Hornets.
Banchero made 8 of 14 shots from the floor to continue his sterling start to the season.
The 19-year-old kept pace with Hall of Famers Elvin Hayes and Oscar Robertson in being the third top overall pick of the NBA draft to score at least 20 points in his first six games. Hayes accomplished the feat over his first 10 games in 1968-69, and Robertson did the same in his first six in 1960-61.
