Sits out fourth quarter in loss Banchero ended with 14 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 loss to the Wizards.

Impact Banchero played just seven minutes in the second half and did not see the floor in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's loss to the Wizards. Orlando erased a 26-point deficit with the bench unit in the game, prompting head coach Jamahl Mosley to ride the hot hand and limit Banchero and other starters' minutes down the stretch. It marked the 23-year-old forward's fewest minutes in a game since one of his first games back from an early-season groin injury on Dec. 7. He entered Tuesday with strong numbers over the past four games, averaging 27.8 points, 10.8 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.0 steals over 36 minutes per game.

He's also finding a bit of a rhythm from long range, hitting for multiple three-pointers in three of those last four contests while going 7-for-15 from beyond the arc.

Drops 31 points in defeat Banchero supplied 31 points (13-23 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-7 FT), six rebounds, six assists, two steals and one block across 35 minutes in Friday's 121-114 loss to the Bulls.

Impact Banchero finished one point shy of tying his season high, and he posted 30-plus points for the first time since Oct. 27. The star forward delivered a productive all-around performance in the loss, tallying at least six rebounds and six assists for the third time in his last four outings. Additionally, he tied his season-best mark in steals. Banchero has scored 20-plus points in three straight games, averaging 27.7 points, 10.3 rebounds and 6.7 assists across 36.0 minutes per game over that stretch.

Hits game-winner in double-double Banchero provided 29 points (12-21 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-7 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, three blocks and one steal across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 112-110 win over Indiana.

Impact His last basket was the biggest, as Banchero broke a 110-110 tie with just 7.5 seconds left in the fourth quarter. The double-double was his ninth of the season, and the fourth-year forward has scored in double digits in 11 straight games, averaging 19.8 points, 8.6 boards, 5.5 assists, and 1.2 combined blocks and steals over that stretch.

Triple-double in Monday's loss Banchero posted 23 points (9-19 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 15 rebounds, 10 assists and one block over 38 minutes during the Magic's 107-106 loss to the Raptors on Monday.

Impact Banchero did the majority of his scoring in the first half and filled up the box score in the second, leading the Magic in rebounds and assists while finishing second in scoring behind Anthony Black (27 points). It was Banchero's second triple-double of the season, both of which have come over his last seven outings. Since Dec. 5, he has averaged 18.0 points, 8.3 rebounds and 5.3 assist over 33.6 minutes per game.

Another subpar showing Banchero amassed 12 points (6-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 0-4 FT), six rebounds and six assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 127-126 victory over the Nuggets.

Impact Anthony Black stole the show for the Magic with a 38-point masterpiece, but it's worth noting that Banchero is going through a noticeable slump of late. The star forward has failed to surpass the 13-point mark in each of his last three outings, and the lack of efficiency has been impossible to ignore, as Banchero is making just 41.7 percent of his shots from the floor in that stretch. The Magic will be fine as long as other players step up, but Banchero needs to provide better numbers, as fantasy managers will undoubtedly be waiting for more out of him.

Impact Banchero's work off the glass helped to offset a mediocre shooting night, finishing tied with Quinten Post for a game-high 12 rebounds. Banchero's numbers rose quickly after his 10-game absence, but his production has plateaued over the last three games, averaging 23.3 points, 12.3 rebounds and 8.7 assists over the span.
