Paolo Banchero News: Scores nine points in return

Banchero (groin) amassed nine points (3-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists in 20 minutes during Friday's 106-105 victory over the Heat.

Banchero was a bit rusty in his first game back following a 10-game absence due to a left groin strain, but he hit some clutch shots down the stretch and finished with a plus-six differential in the win. He was limited to 20 minutes Friday, but Banchero should be cleared for more playing time Sunday in New York.
