Those two averaged a combined 53.4 points per game for the Magic and neither has a concrete timeline to return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Orlando was fully healthy, Suggs was the definitive No. 3 guy. Now he&#8217;s <em>the <\/em>guy and goes up against a Bucks team that is awful at defending point guards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Milwaukee is allowing 28.3 points per game to PGs, which is the most in the NBA, according to Fantasy Pros.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Last year, Milwaukee allowed 25.9 PPG to PGs, the third-most in basketball.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Bucks are also allowing the third-most 3s per game to PGs (3.6) and Suggs has attempted 38 threes in his last four games.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Damian Lillard is a bonafide bucket with a Hall of Fame resume, but his defence isn&#8217;t anything special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suggs is the only player outside of Banchero and Wagner to be averaging north of 10.0 field goal attempts per game, and those numbers are going to go way up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He dropped 26 points on 8-of-18 shooting against the Phoenix Suns on Sunday and had 22 the game before that (with Wagner in the lineup). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Point guards are averaging 32.2 points against Milwaukee in the last seven days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-fa134a48-a478-432b-95e0-66881f0d337b\">Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Irving over 21.5 points (-120)<\/strong>: Luka Doncic is back in the lineup, which will naturally take some opportunities away from Irving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I still expect Dallas&#8217; point guard to go over this line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Doncic playing, Irving is coming off 29 and 25-point outings while shooting north of 62.0% from the field in both games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be fair, those outings were against the Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards. Things won&#8217;t come as easily tonight against the defensively elite Thunder, but that would also explain why this line is so low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Irving has cleared this mark in 10 of 16 games with Doncic in the 2024-25 season, landing on exactly 21 points once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 12:53 p.m. ET on 12\/10\/2024.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve got one prop bet from each of Tuesday&#8217;s NBA Cup quarterfinal games.
