Banchero’s next step will becoming a better off-ball defender. He’s big enough and quick enough to be more impactful than he is. I think he’ll get there eventually. – 2:03 PM

Luke DeCook: Duke 63, UNC 57. Paolo Banchero and Mark Williams run off the floor with the elated Duke players. Not many stars of screen and stage at this one compared to years past, but the game certainly delivered. -via Twitter / February 5, 2023
Paolo Banchero knows a thing or two about starring in two sports simultaneously. He played quarterback for a season in addition to basketball at Seattle’s O’Dea High School before deciding to focus exclusively on basketball. Amazed at all of Suggs’ accomplishments and so incredibly happy for him, Banchero was thrilled to celebrate this occasion with him. “It’s awesome,” he said. “Suggs is a great leader and a fierce competitor…(I have) a lot of respect for that man. To get your jersey retired, in not just one but two sports, is special.” -via NBA.com / February 3, 2023
