"Missing star" game in the betting world.

Team who's already an underdog missing it's key guy or guys. No one gives them any chance at all. Lines get inflated all to fuck and next thing you know they cover or win outright.

I've seen it happen more times than I can remember. The real odds are almost always better than the implied odds you get for a game like this.
Seen it called Ciroc on Ice games in the NBA. Basically the favorite is already on to the after-party when they see the other team is out 3-4 guys (common now in the NBA with all the “load management”).

It’s almost every night some undermanned team sneaks up and wins.

Luckily we have EJ. Unluckily, I still see the Bucks as out-gunned here.
