After reddit nba questioned if we should be worried about him after 4/82 games slow start, Paolo has shot the ball with some good efficiency and very solid defense.
The 3pt % is likely to drop, but even @ 35% it’s a weapon for a guy with Paolo’s bag. The ft shooting is likely to rise somewhat too as he shot 73.8% as a rook.
Very impressed as he and Franz lead the magic to a 10-5 record.
The numbers look a lot better when you take out the first 4 games when he was clearly off. At the end of the day, he’s the #1 option on a 10-5 Magic team with an elite defense that is down it’s starting C and PG. He’s clearly a winning player who is only going to get better.
