Having tasted playoff basketball last season, the Orlando Magic are hungry for more. The team is determined to build on last season’s success and compete at an even higher level next season.
The addition of Kentavious Caldwell-Pope serves as a significant upgrade for the team, but the team’s core of young players, including Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner, will ultimately determine their ceiling.
Surrounded by positive momentum, the 21-year-old Banchero is brimming with confidence. He now expects the team to climb the standings and potentially take over the Eastern Conference next season.
“I think we should easily be a top 4, top 3 team and have a chance to win the East.”
