Cavaliers vs. Magic Odds & Betting Predictions - April 25, 2024

Against Evan Mobley this season: 7, 10, 12, 6 RA in 4 games. Overall he’s under in 17/32 games with Franz when playing 36+ minutes (including 15/L25) - and this is a much tougher matchup, coupled with a slow pace (95 possessions per game).

He was great for the Magic last game, before he fouled out - and was ticketed for more than 21 mins. The Jonathan Isaac experiment isn’t really working, and WCJ doesn’t look great either. When he plays between 15-24 mins this season, he’s 33/46 on this line (5/6 vs CLE).

“You can see the confidence he has on his shot, not from the corner anymore. He’s putting it in the floor, taking step back” - Coach JB Bickerstaff Averages 8.6 PPG going over in 9/9 games when playing 20-25 MIN with all Cavs starters healthy. He’s the X-Factor for the team in Game 3 with a growing role. Okoro saw his minutes jump from 19 to 25 off the bench (and closing game). Cavs are tightening the rotation and Okoro is being rewarded for his two-way play. The reason why I prefer taking his over on points is because I anticipate Orlando making adjustments that include limiting Allen and Mobley’s success down low and taking away Mitchell’s via traps. In Game 2, he had a lot of wide open looks and this is a perfect opportunity for Okoro to punish the opposing team for lack of defense on him. #PlayerProps

Preferably the best route to bet on the Magic this game. If they want to win and allow for Franz/Paolo to get their way down lanes, it’s going to come thru their shooting. Franz is seeing a massive minutes and passing spike from 30.8 MPG (L10 reg szn) to 37.6 MPG and 31.9 (L10 reg szn) to 42.5 Passes Made in the Playoffs. And while the physical metrics for assists remain the same, the underlying potentials aren’t. It’s shaping up to be a clear positive regression spot heading home as his team is down 0-2 in the series. Now in front of their fans, I’m expecting that we can see better shooting and shots actually go in. In the two games this series, Wagner’s teammates are shooting a combined 1-19 (5.2% fron 3PT) via his passes and Franz has converted on 2-13 potentials in Game 1 and 3-13 potentials in Game 2. The Cavs are clearly packing the pack and leaving the shooters open - ORL ranks 3rd highest in Wide Open 3PT FREQ%, yet are converted on 25% of their looks (reg season averaged 38.1% at home). #PlayerProps

Surely the Young Guns in Orlando can win a game this series right?
