Here’s New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau breaking down the versatile offense of Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero following Wednesday’s 118-100 road loss (36 points/7 rebounds/5 assists/1 steal/15-20 FG/6-10 3-PT/+5 +/-).
(via The 3-Point Conversion):
Reporter: “As a competitor, what type of difficulties did Paolo Banchero bring to the table tonight?”
Thibodeau: “Well, he’s an All-Star, so you’ve got to guard a guy like that with your team. When he made his threes, that was a big thing I think for him. But, he’s a load to deal with and he gets into the paint. He’s big, he’s strong, and he has a good mix of shots. He’s a guy that’s difficult to speed up, so I thought he played a great game for them.”
