The Grizzlies have played at the 5th-speediest pace in the NBA over the last 5 games without the home court advantage, which should lead to increased possessions for the Minnesota Timberwolves.The Grizzlies have allowed the 9th-least offensive boards per game (10.4) in the league to their opposition this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce further opportunities for scoring and assists).The matchup vs. Memphis may be a favorable one for getting to the foul line; opposing starting SGs have attempted a monstrous 4.0 foul shots per game over the last 5 games when the Grizzlies are the visiting squad (26th-most in the league).
