Chet Holmgren has averaged 2.2 personal fouls per game this year, putting him among the most-whistled players in the NBA (80th percentile).This year, the opposition's starting PFs have totaled 3.6 three attempts per game (3rd-lowest in the league) against the Timberwolves, resulting in a tough matchup.The Minnesota Timberwolves have played at the least up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 10 games, which should lead to fewer opportunities for the Oklahoma City Thunder.Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and spark additional chances for scoring and assists, but the Thunder grade out 10thworst in in the league while playing at home with a mere 10.6 offensive rebounds per game this year.
