Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic, targeting Desmond Bane for fewer than 22.5 points seems like a smart move. Bane's recent form has seen him average just 18.2 points over his last five games, with a slight uptick to 20.2 when playing at home. Yet, against the Magic, he's struggled, averaging only 16 points in their previous encounters.Adding to the mix, the Heat's defense has been particularly stingy lately, allowing opponents just 11 points in their last eight home games. Bane's overall hit rate for this under is impressive too, hitting the mark three out of four times recently. With an expected stat value sitting at 20.01, it feels like Bane may just fall short of that 22.5 threshold, making the under a compelling bet in this intriguing matchup.
