The Nuggets have played at the 5th-most sluggish pace in the NBA while playing away from home this year.The Nuggets rank as the 8th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate additional chances for scoring and assists).Since the start of last season, the other team has come down with 11.1 offensive boards per game (5th-most in the league) vs. the Timberwolves (saving possessions that can create bonus opportunities for offense).Christian Braun is expected to experience a decrease in effectiveness in all stat categories in light of playing away from hom in this game.
