JI was awesome on defense and TDS bounced back. Bane was decent but he needs to shoot better and more. WCJ had his moments but was frustrating enough to keep him out of the top 3 but he did have a solid game.

Very tough but I went with aggressive AB. I feel like he was extremely active all game on both ends of the floor and gave Lamelo some trouble. One of the best performances I’ve seen from him.
Impossible to separate the next tier for me. TDS and Franz were huge offensively. Paolo had great reads and played to his strengths. Gave some pity chickie nuggies to Duke fans in attendance. JI waking and living up to his nickname.
Maybe lollipop for WCJ. Good game but he also only played 15 mins last night so was well rested.

Awesome game. This was one of those games where you start to see the ECF contender Magic. More discipline on defense, more rhythm on offense. Really good to hear that the Magic are leading the league in FTA's from the broadcast team. Makes sense if we stay top 10 there permanently.
Vest - Paolo Banchero
It's a really tiny thing, but the fact that both the Bench and Paolo himself didn't care about finishing Paolo's triple double was an insight on how serious they are. Paolo was putting on a master class on how to quarterback the game while still dropping plenty of points.
Cummerbund - Franz Wagner
The most positive development of the ENTIRE Magic season so far is probably Franz's 3 point shooting. Just a great and all around elite game. Co-franchise star. Loved the unselfishness to give Paolo the fast break dunk in one moment of a 2 on 0 fast break.
Mittens - Anthony Black
I was really close to giving it to WCJ, but I think Anthony Black scored in more needed moments. And it has to be asked out there to you guys, is AB taking a step to another level as a scorer? I LOVE him taking on more of a scorer mentality. It fits him, and it fits the team.
Honorable Mentions - WCJ, JI, TDS.
Toxic board comment -

Ahh, I probably didn't think of AB's defense enough in my voting.

I voted Black as well, but I didn’t think the margin would be this overwhelming.

I really do love when AB has a good offensive game even if he's not getting more assists than turnovers - for all of the debates, his development as a PG WOULD be THE answer.
TdS, WCJ, Isaac showing more is great...I go Point Paolo threatening a triple double...and hard to ignore Franz more than doubling anyone else's +/-

AB- best career overall game, both sides of the ball
Paolo- team oriented game got the Magic going
Franz- Franz being Franz
