Bradley Beal has been called for 2.5 personal fouls per game while playing on the road this year, putting him in the 87th percentile -- among the league's highest-fouling.The 6th-slowest tempo away team in the league this year has been the Suns.The Suns are expected to see a decline in plays today from competing against the 2nd-most sluggish pace-of-play team in the league over the last 5 games (the Portland Trail Blazers).The Suns rank as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 15 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).Bradley Beal will not enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing without the home court advantage tends to worsen player production for all stats.
