Ausar Thompson has converted 58.3% of his field goal attempts over the last 5 games on the road, 11.5% higher than he's sunk over the course of the year on the road.The 4th-most up-tempo pace team in the NBA over the last 5 games has been the Detroit Pistons.The Detroit Pistons check in as the 3rd-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create additional chances for scoring and assists).The Knicks have allowed the 3rd-least offensive boards per game (9.0) in the NBA to opposing clubs this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce further opportunities for scoring and assists).This matchup is a hard one for drawing fouls; opposing clubs have attempted a measly 16.9 free throws per game when the New York Knicks are the visiting squad this year (2nd-least in the NBA).
