This matchup is a favorable one for threes; opposing clubs have shot for the 2nd-highest three rate in the league this year (38.8%).Offensive rebounds save possession and spark extra opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Lakers rank 2ndworst in in the league away from their home court with just 8.4 offensive boards per game this year.This year when they are the visiting team, the other team has attempted 26.6 free throws per game (3rd-highest in the NBA) against the Spurs, finding it easy to get to the charity stripe.Austin Reaves will likely suffer a reduction in effectiveness across the board on account of being on the road in this game.
