Keon Ellis (Sacramento Kings) Over 5.5 Points (-141)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Orlando Magic prepare to face the Cleveland Cavaliers, all eyes should be on Keon Ellis to hit the Over on 5.5 points. This season, Ellis has been a reliable scorer, particularly against the Cavaliers, where he's averaged an impressive 10.3 points over their last five matchups. What's more, in his last 20 games, he's found the net at least six times in 15 of them, showcasing a consistency that's hard to ignore. Playing at home, his scoring average spikes to 7.6 points, and given that the Cavaliers have allowed an average of 9.5 points to opponents in their recent outings, the odds favor Keon stepping up. With an expected stat value of 8.46, there's a solid narrative here that suggests he'll eclipse that 5.5 mark effortlessly. It's a smart play that feels almost like a lock as the Magic look to capitalize on their home court advantage.
