Cavaliers vs. Magic prop bet predictions for Friday
Paolo Banchero Over 29.5 points + assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Some say the Cavaliers-Magic series is the least watchable series in the NBA playoffs, but those people don't appreciate the art of stingy defense (and the fun of brutal offense). It's like if Virginia were to play Houston in college basketball, it's borderline painful to watch, but you have to respect it.
I say all that to say that Banchero has been a diamond in the rough for this series and easily the most formidable offensive player. The former No. 1 overall pick has been a mismatch against the Cavs and has topped 29.5 points and assists in three of five games.
Banchero is averaging 29.2 points and assists in the series and is coming off his best game with 43. This same prop is as short as -125, which implies a 55.56% probability it hits, according to our odds calculator. At our price, a $10 bet pays out $18.85.
Best odds: -113 via FanDuel

Darius Garland Under 17.5 points ⭐⭐⭐⭐
No player better exemplifies how deranged this series has been than Darius Garland. At times, the former All-Star has looked more like Judy Garland with his ability to act like he should be running the offense rather than deferring to Donovan Mitchell.
Ultimately, neither of Cleveland's guards has inspired much confidence, and they've raised questions about their fit together. Garland has had an especially tough series. Outside of dropping 17 points in the first quarter of Game 5, he still only had six the rest of the game.
Garland has topped 17.5 points just once in the series and is averaging 14.2 per game while only taking 11.8 shots. Orlando's swarming defense has him flustered and missing easy looks, too. Our other best sportsbooks have this prop priced at -130, implying a 56.52% probability it hits. Our odds cash a $8.47 profit on a $10 bet.
Best odds: -118 via BetMGM

Evan Mobley Over 1.5 blocks ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The best comparison for Evan Mobley is a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man. He's not going to do a lot with the ball in his hands, but he will get those tentacle-like arms in the way of looks - and he did late in Game 5 to reject Franz Wagner to secure a win.
Mobley frequently impacts shot angles and comes away with devastating swats around the rim, and this has been constant in this grudge match against the Magic. The former first-round pick is averaging 2.2 blocks for the series and has at least two in four of five games.
While this price may be short, I like it because of the value in comparison to what it was at initially. When props opened it was priced at -175, implying a 63.64% probability it hits. But with it down to -160, it pays out $16.25 on a $10 bet.
Best odds: -160 via Caesars
