Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons) Under 40.5 Points + Assists (-303)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Cade Cunningham has been a central figure for the Pistons, but let's not get swept away by the hype against the Magic. While his recent averages at home show a respectable 18.4 points and 11.6 assists, that still puts him at around 30 combined. The key lies in his performance against Orlando; historically, he's averaged only 26.4 points and 8.2 assists in their matchups at home. Moreover, the Pistons' offensive flow tends to tighten against tougher defenses like the Magic, who will be looking to stifle Cunningham's impact. With an expected stat value of just 27.13, it's clear that the numbers suggest a dip. Given his underwhelming 14.6 points and 8 assists in the last five outings, the under on 40.5 seems like a smart move. The numbers are lining up to suggest a night where Cunningham may not hit that mark.

Jalen Duren (Detroit Pistons) Under 14.5 Rebounds (-500)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Detroit Pistons host the Orlando Magic, all eyes will be on Jalen Duren, but it's an intriguing moment to consider betting the under on his rebound total of 14.5. While Duren has shown promise, averaging just under 10 rebounds in his last five games overall and a slightly better 11.2 at home, he's been remarkably consistent against the Magic, pulling down about 10.4 rebounds per game in their recent matchups. However, the magic number here is 14.5. With his current expected stat value hovering around 9.73 and an impressive hit rate of 20 out of his last 20 games hitting under this line, it's clear that the odds favor a more measured performance. Given these trends and the pressure of the matchup, Duren may find it tough to reach this lofty total. Thus, taking the under seems to be a savvy move for this game.

Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons) Under 30.5 Points (-312)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Detroit Pistons host the Orlando Magic, eyes will be on Cade Cunningham, but betting on him to score under 30.5 points feels like the savvy move. While Cunningham has had some dazzling performances recently, averaging 14.6 points over his last five games, he's particularly struggled against this Magic squad at home, managing only 26.4 points in their last encounters. His home performance, although slightly better at 18.4 points, still falls short of the lofty threshold we're targeting. The numbers reveal a clear pattern: he's been under this mark in his last four outings, and the Pistons' overall reliance on team play means he might not need to carry the scoring load. With an implied probability of 75.8%, it seems like a prudent bet that Cunningham won't eclipse that 30.5 points barrier this time around.
