Paolo Banchero Points Prop is currently Over/Under 23.5 (-125/-105).
Key Factors
Favors Over
Paolo Banchero has tallied 25.8 points per game over the last 5 games, 4.2 more than he's tallied over the course of the year.
The matchup vs. Miami is a favorable one for threes; when the Heat have the home court advantage, the other team's starting PFs have put up the highest three percentage in the NBA this year (46.4%).
The Magic will likely see a spike in opportunities in this contest from sharing the court with the most up-tempo tempo offense in the NBA this year (the Heat).
The Orlando Magic rank as the 4th-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA while on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore produce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).
Favors Under
When it comes to shooting, the Magic's lackluster 105.4 points per game places 4th-worst in the NBA over the last 5 games.
Over the last 10 games, opposing starting PFs have attempted 1.8 free throws per game (2nd-lowest in the league) vs. the Miami Heat, struggling to get to the foul line.
