Down Goes Franz

As if missing All-Star Paolo Banchero (29.0 PPG, 8.8 RPG, 5.6 APG in 5 GP this year) wasn’t bad enough, Orlando got more bad news on Friday when Franz Wagner (24.4 PPG, 5.6 RPG, 5.7 APG) suffered a torn oblique during a 102-94 loss at Philadelphia.

Wagner will be out for four-to-six weeks. The Magic responded admirably in their first game without both their star scorers, taking down the Kevin Durant-less Suns 115-110, led by 26 points from Jalen Suggs.

The victory improved Orlando’s home record to a perfect 10-0, which stands in stark contrast to their 7-9 record in road games.

ORL vs MIL Player Props

NBA player props from DraftKings Sportsbook on Dec 10.

Giannis (32.5 PPG, 11.6 RPG, 6.2 APG) has the highest point total (29.5 O/U) and rebound total (11.5 O/U) of the night. After a relatively sluggish start to the season, Giannis as gone over 29.5 points in seven of his last eight games, averaging 34.4 PPG in that eight-game span. Giannis’ hot streak has coincided with Milwaukee’s surge up the East standings. After starting the year an ugly 4-9, they are now a game over .500 thanks to going 8-2 in their last ten.

Suggs (16.0 PPG, 3.9 RPG, 3.9 APG) leads the Magic players at 24.5 O/U. In Orlando’s only game without Wagner and Bachero this season, he had a team-high 26.

Magic vs Bucks Predictions

Orlando is running into Milwaukee at the wrong time and in the wrong place. They showed remarkable resilience last time out, maintaining their perfect home record without their two most-important players but that was a fatigued Phoenix team playing it’s second game in as many nights and third in four. Tonight, Orlando faces a rested and resurgent Bucks group that’s won seven of its last eight at Fiserv Forum.

• Bucks -3.5 (-170) at FanDuel
• Antetokounmpo over 29.5 points (-120) at DraftKings
