Out of all players in the NBA, Aaron Nesmith places in the 94th percentile for personal fouls, registering a colossal 3.0 fouls per game playing at home this year.The Charlotte Hornets have played at the most lethargic pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 10 games, which should lead to fewer plays for the Indiana Pacers.The Hornets have given up the most offensive boards per game (13.8) in the league to opposing clubs over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce additional chances for scoring and assists).Aaron Nesmith has converted just 67.9% of his free throw attempts this season, quite a bit lower than his 84.8 mark last season.As a team, the Pacers have been quite unsuccesful at getting to the charity stripe of late: 9th-worst in the league over the last 5 games, totaling just 20.8 free throw attempts per game.
