The 3rd-slowest tempo offense in the NBA over the last 15 games has been the Timberwolves.The Lakers have played at the 3rd-most sluggish pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games with the home court advantage, which should decrease plays for the Timberwolves.Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and spark added opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Minnesota Timberwolves grade out 8thworst in in the league on the road with just 10.2 offensive boards per game this year.Anthony Edwards ought to see a decline in effectiveness across the board considering being on the road in this matchup.
