Aug 21, 20242 min read

Every summer there seems to be one young player who the hobby clutches onto and their prices skyrocket despite not playing. Paolo Banchero the 2022 #1 overall pick seems to be that guy. The combo forward is hoping to make the star leap in his third season after 2 very impressive seasons. The Magic made the playoffs for the first time since 2019, all in part due to 21 year old Banchero.

Standing at 6'10" and the ability to score from anywhere on the floor, Paolo has the measurables and the skillset to be the next big thing. With great athleticism but also touch around the rim, his game can be compared to a mix of prime Blake Griffin and Kevin Love combined.

In the last 3 months, Paolo's market has gone up a notable 24%. The steady and consistent growth is very important as it seems genuine and not artificial.

Paolo's 2022 Prizm numbered cards in high grades have performed really well over the last 90 days.
