Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Miami Heat and the Orlando Magic, targeting Desmond Bane for under 22.5 points seems like a savvy move. Bane's recent performances tell a story of inconsistency, averaging just 18.2 points over his last five games. When facing the Heat, he's managed a mere 16 points in their last encounter, and Miami has been particularly tough on opposing guards lately, limiting players to an average of just 11 points at home.Add to that the fact that Bane's recent home average has dipped to 20.2 points, and it's clear he's not only struggled as of late but is also up against a defense that's giving him a run for his money. With his expected stat value hovering around 20.01 and a hit rate of 6/8 for unders in similar settings, this bet looks promising. Keep an eye on the matchup; it could just be the right time to fade Bane.
