ORLANDO, Fla. -- Paolo Banchero had the best night of his career Monday.

Banchero tied the Orlando Magic record for points in a half, scoring 37 in the first two quarters against the Indiana Pacers. He finished with a career-high 50 points -- tying the fifth-highest scoring effort in Magic history. Orlando won 119-115.

"Man, I'm tired; I'm tired as hell," Banchero said after the first 50-point effort in the NBA this season.
