Banchero notched his 11th double-double of the season and second of the month Wednesday, finishing with 30 points and 14 rebounds in Orlando's overtime victory over Brooklyn. The former first-overall pick shot 11-of-19 from the field and converted seven of eight free-throw attempts while also recording six assists. His lone three-pointer came at the overtime buzzer, capping a strong response to Tuesday's 14-point showing against Washington.
Fantasy Impact:
The 30 points represented Orlando's highest scoring total for the game, though nine turnovers cost him additional fantasy production. Multiple Magic players recorded double-digit rebounds alongside Banchero, but his all-around contributions proved essential in securing the win. Despite the ball-security issues, his clutch shooting and rebounding delivered solid fantasy value in the victory.
