Game Analysis

Model projects Dallas 112-107 win (68% prob) as home favorite despite 5 DTDs—Orlando loses Isaac/Black efficiency while Banchero (22.6) carries alone. Injuries thin both but Dallas home/ELO edge + Flagg (20.3) tips scale; total under 218.5 on depleted pace (model 219 but -5 adj). Calibrate down 3pts on 47% NBA record, prioritize ML (+4.2 EV).
