Collin Sexton's recent surge from beyond the arc signals a big night against Orlando, making the over on 1.5 three-pointers a bet worth watching.

In the world of NBA betting, the devil's in the details and the trends. And if there's one trend that's as hot as a summer in Phoenix right now, it's Collin Sexton's relationship with the three-point line. The sharpshooter has been turning heads, especially over his last 10 games, where he's been lighting it up from downtown more reliably than a GPS satellite. Tonight, as the Utah Jazz face off against the Orlando Magic, all indicators suggest Sexton is about to go supernova from beyond the arc.

Let's dive into the numbers, shall we? This season, Sexton's overall average sits at a decent 1.59 three-pointers made per game. But like a fine wine or my attempt at homemade sourdough, he's gotten better with time. Over his last 20 games, this man has been on a tear, averaging 2.15 three-pointers made. And in the short span of his last 10 and 5 games, he's hovered around the 2.1 and 2.0 marks, respectively. These aren't just good numbers; they're a clarion call to anyone with a betting slip and a dream.

Now, some naysayers might point to his performance against Orlando earlier in the season – a big, round goose egg in the three-point column. But let's be real: even LeBron has off nights, and one game is hardly a trend, especially when set against Sexton's recent performances. Plus, with a scoring trend that's as upwardly mobile as Sexton's, it's hard not to get a little bullish about his prospects in the rematch.

Critically, it's not just about Sexton hitting shots; it's about the volume of opportunities he's getting. With more than 1.5 three-pointers made in 8 of his last 10 games, Sexton isn't just throwing up prayers at the buzzer. He's an integral part of Utah's offensive scheme, taking shots with the confidence of a gambler on a hot streak. And with the Jazz going up against an Orlando squad that's had its struggles, the stage is set for Sexton to play the role of downtown dynamo once again.

But here's where it gets even more interesting for those riding the Sexton wave tonight. While his season-long home and away splits show a slight preference for lighting it up at home, his recent form suggests that location might just be a state of mind. The man is averaging 1.79 three-pointers made at home and 1.4 on the road this season, but with his current hot streak, those road numbers seem like ancient history.

So, what's the play here? If you're someone who likes to keep an eye on the stats, the trends, and the trajectory of players heating up at the right time, Sexton's over on 1.5 three-pointers made tonight against Orlando isn't just a smart bet—it's a highlight reel waiting to happen. The Magic might be focused on stopping him, but with Sexton's recent form, that's easier said than done.

In conclusion, betting is never without its risks, and there are no guarantees in sports. However, armed with the right data and a keen eye for trends, one can make informed decisions. And all signs point to Collin Sexton not just meeting but exceeding the 1.5 three-point threshold tonight. So, grab your popcorn (and your betting slip) because Sexton is about to put on a show from beyond the arc.
