Wendell Carter Jr.

Wendell Carter Jr.’s huge night on the offensive glass won the Orlando Magic the game. Deadlocked with the Detroit Pistons in the closing seconds of regulation, Markelle Fultz inbounded to Paolo Banchero, whose driving layup attempt to win the game rimmed out. No problem, as a crashing Carter Jr. arrived in the nick of time to tip in his teammate’s miss for the go-ahead put-back as time expired. The fifth-year center’s opportune tip-in capped a 14-point, 14-rebound effort — six offensive boards in a game where nobody else had more than two — in Orlando’s 108-106 victory on February 23, 2023.
