Paolo Banchero On Duke Basketball, the Orlando Magic, & Everything Jordan Brand

Orlando Magic Power Forward Paolo Banchero’s path to superstardom wasn’t linear. Never considered a viral sensation, Banchero took Coach Mike Krzyzewski’s early advice to go to Duke if he wanted a chance to become the NBA’s #1 overall draft pick, a dream fulfilled in 2022. Banchero shares this and more in the newest installment of Boardroom Talks, where he sits with Boardroom Co-Founder Rich Kleiman to share his battle back from injury this season, how the chemistry of the Magic has evolved throughout his hiatus and return and how they’re working toward a star-packed parity in the NBA similar to Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown in Boston or Nikola Jokić and Jamal Murray in Denver. Later, the two discuss how the role of the NBA star has evolved from Michael Jordan to LeBron James and into present day stars like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Anthony Edwards as well as how the latter, Edwards, shared an instrumental belief on how the playoffs are a unique beast of competition. Banchero also gushes over his love for Duke Basketball, his admiration for Duke phenom Cooper Flagg and what’s next for his quest of becoming a perennial All-Star in the league.
