The matchup against the Indiana Pacers is a good one; they have given up the most points per game in the league to the other team's starting SGs this year (19.0).The Nuggets are expected to see a spike in possessions in this contest from squaring off against the 2nd-most up-tempo pace team in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Pacers).Offensive rebounds retain possession and spark additional chances for scoring and assists, and the Nuggets grade out 7th-best in in the league while on their home court with 12.0 offensive boards per game over the last 5 games.Over the last 20 games when they are at home, opposing starting SGs have attempted 4.0 free throws per game (3rd-highest in the league) vs. the Pacers, making it fairly effortless to get to the foul line.
