Aaron Nesmith has averaged 2.9 personal fouls per game this year, ranking him as one of the highest-fouling players in the league (88th percentile).Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and create additional opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Indiana Pacers rank 8thworst in in the NBA with just 9.3 offensive boards per game this year.Away from home, the Hawks have allowed the 10th-most offensive rebounds per game (11.5) in the league to opposing clubs this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce added chances for scoring and assists).Aaron Nesmith will not have the home court advantage in this game. Playing without the home court advantage tends to worsen player production across the board.
