Sources — Magic’s Paolo Banchero questionable Friday vs. Cavaliers

Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero has sustained a right abdominal strain and is listed as questionable for Friday’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources told ESPN’s Shams Charania.

Banchero will be re-evaluated on Friday, sources added.

Through five games, Banchero leads the Magic in scoring (29), assists (5.6) and minutes (36.4) played per game.

Banchero dropped a career-high 50 points in Monday’s win over the Indiana Pacers, making him the second-youngest player to record at least 50 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in a game in NBA history behind LeBron James, who accomplished the feat in 2005 against the Toronto Raptors.

Banchero followed that up with a 31-point effort in Wednesday’s loss to the Chicago Bulls, making him just the third player to average 40 points over a two-game span in franchise history, joining former Magic stars Tracy McGrady and Shaquille O’Neal.
