Bam Adebayo has sunk 12.5% of his 3-pointers while on his home court since the start of last season, putting him in the 6th percentile among all players in the league.This year when they are on their home court, the other team's starting Cs have notched 11.0 points per game (13th-lowest in the league) vs. the Atlanta Hawks, designating this as a difficult matchup for offensive production.The Heat rank as the 10th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA when playing away from home this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate additional opportunities for scoring and assists).This year when they are the visiting team, the other team has collected 11.3 offensive boards per game (9th-most in the NBA) against the Atlanta Hawks (preserving possessions that can spark more opportunities for offense).Bam Adebayo will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing away from your home city tends to reduce player performance for all stats.
