Magic’s Paolo Banchero reportedly to miss time with high ankle sprain, could be out 4-6 weeks

The Orlando Magic need a spell to lift their injury curse. They’ve been haunted by ailments, the latest of which reportedly could sideline their best player for more than a month.

Magic star Paolo Banchero is now nursing a low-grade right high ankle sprain, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania, who also reported Saturday that the injury usually comes with a four-to-six-week recovery timeline.

Banchero, a soon-to-be 24-year-old one-time All-Star forward, exited a 115-93 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the third quarter Friday night and didn’t return.
