Key Factors

Favors Over

Bam Adebayo has converted 9.2 shots made from the field per game over the last 5 games, 1.4 higher than he's converted in all games this season.
Among all players in the league, Bam Adebayo registers in the 95th percentile for playing time, compiling a whopping 34.6 minutes per game this year.
The matchup against Deandre Ayton is a good one for 3-pointers; when guarding other starting Cs this year, they have averaged a whopping 0.9 3-point shots per game (100th percentile).
This year when they are on the road, the other team has secured 9.8 offensive rebounds per game (4th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Portland Trail Blazers (losing possessions that could otherwise create extra opportunities for offense).
As a team, the Miami Heat have been very successful at getting to the charity stripe recently: 4th-best in the NBA over the last 5 games while on the road with 23.6 free throws per game.

Favors Under

Out of all players in the NBA, Bam Adebayo rates in the 84th percentile for personal fouls, averaging a whopping 2.4 fouls per game this year.
The least up-tempo tempo road team in the league over the last 25 games has been the Miami Heat.
The Portland Trail Blazers have played at the 3rd-most lethargic pace-of-play in the NBA on their home court this year, which should reduce opportunities for the Miami Heat.
The Heat check in as the 4th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional chances for scoring and assists).
Bam Adebayo has attempted and missed 1.4 free throw attempts per game this season, a significant increase from his 1.0 mark last season.
