After he and Franz Wagner shined bright in a win over the Los Angeles Lakers Monday night, Paolo Banchero said the Orlando Magic's second consecutive victory "doesn't mean anything."
Why?
"Honestly, that's what we expect, we just hadn't done it," the third-year pro said. "We were hungry to do it, but that doesn't matter if we go into Charlotte tomorrow and lay an egg."
The Magic nearly did lay an egg. But, they made key plays late and scored the game's final seven points to fight off a hangover loss to the lowly 18-win Hornets.
