Miami Heat @ Orlando Magic (10:10am)
With Franz Wagner going down with what has been revealed as a high ankle sprain, it’s going to be full steam ahead Banchero for the Orlando Magic.
When Paolo was injured earlier this season, we saw the Magic increase usage through Wagner, and I expect a replica here with roles reversed. Paolo has only been back for two games, and we have seen his minutes start at twenty per game and now up to twenty four. With this game being an NBA Cup elimination game, they will need Banchero for 30+ if they are to knock off the Heat.
Before his injury, Banchero was averaging 23.3PPG and only went under this line in two games to start the season.
Value Bet
New York Knicks @ Toronto Raptors (12:30pm)
With Josh Hart finding his way back to a starting spot and the return of O.G for the Knicks, I still see enough time for Robinson to grab 7+ boards.
The Knicks will still be without McBride, Shamet and Dadiet which should see Mitch still get 20+ minutes. The Toronto matchup allows New York to run a traditional centre, with Jakob Poeltl far from a shooting big man.
Robinson is averaging 8RPG over the last two weeks, which does include a spot start where he managed thirteen rebounds. If KAT does actually have a calf issue, they will turn to Robinson for back up centre minutes.
This season we have seen Mitch grab seven boards in as little as fourteen minutes, he does not do much else other than rebound and block shots.
