Bryce McGowens Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 1.5 (-123/-111).
Key Factors
Favors Over
Over the last 5 games when they are at home, opposing squads have snagged 8.8 offensive rebounds per game (4th-fewest in the NBA) vs. the Bulls (minimizing possessions that could otherwise bring about added chances for offense).
Bryce McGowens will receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing in your home city tends to raise stat production for all stats.
Favors Under
The Hornets have played at the 3rd-least up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 25 games.
The Hornets are expected to suffer a drop-off in possessions in this game from competing against the most lethargic pace-of-play offense in the NBA this year (the Bulls).
The Charlotte Hornets check in as the 5th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).
