LaMelo Ball (Charlotte Hornets) Under 4.5 Threes Made (-154)

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Orlando Magic and the Charlotte Hornets, targeting LaMelo Ball for under 4.5 made threes feels like a smart play. Although he's been a sharpshooter this season, averaging 5.2 threes in his last five games, his performance on the road has been slightly muted, with just 5 made per game away from home. Against the Magic, historically, he's managed a modest 3.2 threes when facing them, and even less at 3.8 in Orlando. With a solid hit rate of 7 out of his last 11 games going under this mark away from Charlotte, it seems the odds are in the favor of this prop. With an expected stat value of only 3.26 threes, the under is not just plausible; it's a compelling bet that capitalizes on recent trends and matchups.
