This year, the opposition's starting PFs have averaged 4.9 3-point attempts per game (5th-highest in the NBA) vs. the Raptors, identifying this as a strong matchup.The 4th-speediest pace-of-play home offense in the NBA over the last 5 games has been the Oklahoma City Thunder.The Thunder will likely see an increase in opportunities today from facing the speediest pace visiting team in the league over the last 5 games (the Toronto Raptors).The Thunder rank as the 2nd-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create added opportunities for scoring and assists).Chet Holmgren figures to get a boost in productivity across the board due to holding the home court advantage in this contest.
