Paolo finishes up the night with 31 points to go with 6 rebounds as well as 3 assists.
9-21 shooting in a huge win over the Boston Celtics tonight. He’s a really good player.

It’s wild how polished he looks as rookie.
Top 20 player already tbh no bias though 🫣
He’s so good (4x)
Insane how some people actually didn’t think he was the top prospect
Don’t call HIM Paolo anymore. He is officially known as HIM.
Thank god we got him
Would have been a disaster to let him rot in Houston
Paolo is the truth
6/7 from three
Goat
He shot 6/7 for the 3 ball tonight, by far his best night shooting for us so far.
That’s why he went number 1 in the draft, duh!
For such a solid rookie class, the ROY race hasn’t been much of a competition
Paolo reminds me a ton of Tatum. They’re built like nearly identically. He’s prolly going to develop similarly too
Skill set wise he really does really feel like a late career mini Lebron. Just does a bit everything and ends up with 30 points. If he had the same absurd athleticism they could be twins
All the Paolo truthers feeling vindicated after trying to convince people for months he was the top pick
I’m glad Orlando took this game. One of the most entertaining I’ve seen in a minute, but poor Paolo has lost so many games already while carrying his team. Happy to see him rewarded for his awesome effort tonight.
want to thank that guy like a week ago who said paolo was mailing it in ad disinterested lol
Sixers are my squad but since I’m in OKC I root for the Thunder too, really wishing we had Paolo right now. He makes OKC just as dangerous as NOLA I think
Yeah so this ROY race is over over, right?
