This isn’t something new, we’ve seen many players get massive contracts only to underperform or miss time due to injuries. In fact, if I remember correctly, Durant was given a huge deal by the Nets even though he missed an entire season. So if we’re looking at this from a gambling perspective, it’s definitely a high-risk move. But the difference here is that Banchero is still young and not injury-prone, so in my opinion, it’s a gamble worth taking.
