Desmond Bane (Memphis Grizzlies) Under 22.5 Points (-135)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we gear up for the clash between the Miami Heat and Orlando Magic, keep an eye on Desmond Bane's scoring potential. With a points line set at 22.5, the under seems particularly enticing. Bane has averaged just 18.2 points over his last five games, dipping to 16 against this Magic team that has historically stifled scorers. Moreover, in his last eight games at home against teams like Orlando, he's found himself hitting the under six times. His recent performance also shows that he's averaging only 20.2 points when playing at home, and against this matchup, the defense has allowed just 11 points to opponents in their last five games. With an expected stat value hovering around 20, it feels like a safe bet that Bane may struggle to reach that 22.5 mark when the second half rolls around. Trust the numbers-Bane's under is worth a shot.
