Franz Wagner Does Literally Everything

  • Franz Wagner is one of the few players in the NBA that can quite literally do everything. The Orlando Magic are towards the end of what most consider to be a rebuilding phase, and the duo of Franz Wagner and Paolo Banchero are spearheading their ambitions to make the playoffs next year.
    Franz had an electric showing at the FIBA World Cup for Germany, and it's only solidifying the notion that the Orlando Magic have not just one, but two young stars in the making with him and Paolo Banchero.
    Wagner is a unique player in that he is extremely capable of doing everything, while also being extremely good at some things. It's hard to find really anything that Franz is overly deficient in, and he already looks like he's gonna be one of the most versatile players in the NBA on both sides of the floor.

    Rooting for his childhood franchise here in Berlin.
    He is incredibly settled taking into account he just turned 22.
    Obviously he’s not the best at anything but still he’s able to do pretty much everything.
    Versatile, athletic, intelligent game.
    I love how he doesn’t look to skilled but can get to the basket pretty much every time he wants to.
    Really really glad we germans got to see him developing in the NBA and hopefully got a next all star soon.

    Alex, thank you for not just sticking to big market teams like Lakers, Celtics, Suns etc. It's nice to see an analysis on players on smaller market teams that 98% of the mainstream media won't cover because they are more worried about potential views(more views $$$ from covering bigger market teams). I have been watching your videos for a couple months now and notice the significant quality difference between your analyses compared to other videos on youtube. Keep up the quality work, always a pleasure to watch your content.
    ps. I know you have some Timberwolves videos, but I don't think their roster is talked about enough. Many people see them as a "play-in" team but honestly I think they are dark-horses to make a deep playoff run. I would love to hear your thoughts on their roster.

    awesome video. what i like the most about Franz are his playmaking skills. the fundamentals of his playstile he learned already in his time as a teenager on the youth teams and also in his first Pro season with Alba Berlin where the spanish coaching legend Aito Garcias successfully implemented his philosophy of read'n react free flowing offense. of course he was and still is growing with Michigan and now in Orlando... but i would proudly reclaim that the foundation was set (/laid?) in his Berlin years.

    One thing I noticed with him cuz I got him on my fantasy team last year is that he usually misses a lot of shots in the first half and starts making them on the 2nd half. And I also noticed that they did give him the ball alot, especially when his brother gets the ball and will usually let it fly more often than not, regardless if it's a good shot or not. But I do believe that he will get fewer touches next season if they are planning to go with banchero. He might even get traded, not cuz his bad but cuz he has a bigger value in the open market.

    Franz is player that can fit pretty much any team and help. It's hard to talk about his ceiling but he will be great player for years to come.
    You can hope Banchero improves his efficiency and rebounding and becomes great player as well.
    But Magic main problem still is dreadful guard rotation made out of poor shooters.
