Paolo Banchero was one of the most heralded prospects coming out of college.
The former Duke Blue Devil played one of the most eye-popping freshman seasons in NCAA history, throwing down just as many emphatic dunks as he set his teammates up for. The future looked bright as day for the young 6'10 point forward sensation.
A year or two ago, the jury was still out on Banchero, and it very well may still be. Despite his down year, the Magic's franchise cornerstone is still a mere 23 years young. Many GMs have heard stories of players re-vitalizing their careers, taking that next step, adding that extra skill to excel in the league far beyond the levels at which they had previously exhibited.
