WIN
Pistons vs. Magic
Cade Cunningham Points Over 24.5
ANALYSIS
Cunningham enters this matchup averaging 25.4 PPG on the season, having already torched the Magic for an average of 34.5 points across two meetings this year. With Orlando missing primary wing defender Franz Wagner (ankle) and Jalen Suggs (back) limited, Cunningham should easily maintain his recent 31.4% usage rate against a depleted perimeter. Coming off a 25-point performance against Cleveland and a massive 42-point outing against New York, his current 24.5 line is set below both his season average and historical head-to-head dominance.
Key Data
Usage rate 31.4% over last 5 games; projected 27.2 points; market price 0.625.
OUTCOME
Detroit Pistons 106 - Orlando Magic 92
Cade Cunningham scored 29 points in the game against the Orlando Magic on March 01, 2026, which is higher than the prop line of 24.5 points.
