Orlando Magic: Banchero set for a month on the sidelines, Hoops Rumors says

An ankle injury threatens a long spell out for Orlando Magic's forward, with the team on 0 points after 2 NBA games.

Paolo Banchero is reported to be heading for several weeks out by BasketSession, while Hoops Rumors says the Orlando Magic forward himself expects a month or more away.

Hoops Rumors adds that he lasted just 26 minutes of the season's second game, after a team-mate came down on his ankle early on. The diagnosis is a mild high ankle sprain, which typically takes several weeks to heal.

It is a heavy blow for a side with 0 points after 2 NBA games, beaten 93-115 by the Minnesota Timberwolves on 23 October. Orlando travel to the Toronto Raptors on 28 October, 23:30 Casablanca time.
