It took him a few weeks to kind of put it all together at Duke, but once he did, Paolo Banchero was nearly unstoppable.

He ended up being drafted #1 by Orlando and was last year’s Rookie of the Year.

We’re going to ask you to use your imagination for a minute here.

Banchero was one when Lebron James was drafted in 2003. He was also taken first and was also Rookie of The Year.

He was three the first time James was named an All-Star, six when James helped the US win gold in Beijing in 2008 and 10 when James won his first NBA title with Miami in 2012.
