Orlando Magic power forward Paolo Banchero thinks that getting named a 2024 NBA All-Star will motivate him to achieve even more.
(via Orlando Magic):
“Every time I achieve a goal that I set… I feel like it just catapults me into the next goal and what I want to accomplish after that. This summer I looked at some guys who won Rookie of the Year, and then what their second years in the NBA looked like. There was some guys who really took a big jump in their second year, and all guys who I want to be in the same level as. So I knew that my second year I wanted to improve in every aspect and just become a much better player and household name. I think I’ve gotten closer to that this year, and being an All-Star is I think validation.”
