The Orlando Magic watched their lead completely collapse. They watched the Toronto Raptors outwork them on the glass and in transition.
But this game, they had one thing they thought they could rely on. One thing they could turn to. Or at least they thought they could turn to.
Paolo Banchero is the star the Magic need. The one who can hit the tough shots and put pressure all over the defense. At long last, he looked like the star player the Magic have needed to get them through this stretch.
Only he was not quite all the way there.
