The matchup against Utah is a favorable one for shots from behind the three-point arc; when the Jazz are playing at home, opposing starting SGs have totaled the 2nd-most three attempts per game in the NBA this year (7.3).The Thunder are expected to see a rise in opportunities today from sharing the court with the 2nd-speediest pace-of-play home team in the league over the last 5 games (the Utah Jazz).The Oklahoma City Thunder check in as the 2nd-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 9 games when playing away from home (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore produce new opportunities for scoring and assists).This year when they are away from home, the opposition's starting SGs have attempted 4.2 free throws per game (4th-highest in the league) vs. the Jazz, succeeding in their efforts to draw fouls.
