This isn’t the news Orlando Magic fans want to hear! The Orlando Magic announced that their superstar player, Paolo Banchero, has been diagnosed with a torn right oblique. If you’re wondering where that is, your oblique muscles are located on the sides of your abdomen, over your ribcage.

The Magic said Paolo will be out indefinitely and his return to the court will depend on how he responds to treatment. He will be re-evaluated by the team’s medical staff in 4-6 weeks.

The injury came towards then end of the game in Wednesday night’s loss to the Bulls in Chicago.

That was just one game after Paolo became the youngest player in Orlando Magic history to score 50-points in their win at home against the Pacers.

Get well soon Paolo, you will be missed!
