Paolo Banchero (Orlando Magic) Under 37.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-123)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishingAs the Orlando Magic travel to face the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes will be on Paolo Banchero, but betting on him to go over 37.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists might not be the best choice. While he has shown flashes of brilliance, averaging 15.8 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 5.2 assists in his last five games, those numbers dip slightly when he's away, with averages of 18.6 points and just 4.6 assists. Against the Pelicans, his recent away performance reveals a troubling trend-he's only managing about 31.7 points in his last outings there, significantly lower than tonight's line. Plus, his overall hit rate is solid, but the last four games have inflated expectations. With the Pelicans boasting a stout defense, it feels like a perfect storm for Banchero to fall short of that total. Taking the under could be the savvy play here.
