Ben Simmons has accumulated 2.4 personal fouls per game while on the road this year, ranking in the 84th percentile -- among the league's most foul-prone.The LA Clippers have played at the 5th-slowest pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 10 games as the away team.The Lakers have played at the 6th-most lethargic pace in the league over the last 25 games, which should decrease plays for the Clippers.The Clippers check in as the 8th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 25 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate additional chances for scoring and assists).Ben Simmons will not enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing while traveling usually lowers player performance in all stat categories.
