Analysis

CJ McCollum Made 3 Point Shots Prop is currently Over/Under 2.5 (-140/+110).

Key Factors

Favors Over

CJ McCollum has made 3.8 treys per game over the last 5 games on the road, 1.2 higher than he's converted from beyond the arc over the course of the year while playing away from home.
CJ McCollum has tallied 34.8 minutes per game this year, some of the highest playing time of any player in the NBA: 96th percentile.
The New Orleans Pelicans check in as the most efficient 3-point shooting team in the NBA over the last 20 games.
The matchup vs. Minnesota is a positive one for threes; when the Timberwolves are at home, the opposing team's starting PGs have shot for the 28th-highest three percentage in the NBA this year (40.3%).
The Timberwolves have played at the 2nd-fastest pace-of-play in the NBA at home this year, which should lead to more possessions for the Pelicans.

Favors Under

CJ McCollum has accumulated 0.1 technical fouls per game this year, placing him among the most foul-prone players in the NBA when it comes to getting T'ed up (88th percentile).
The New Orleans Pelicans have played at the 3rd-most sluggish pace in the league over the last 5 games.
The New Orleans Pelicans have been the 5th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 20 games while playing on the road (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore lead to fewer chances for scoring and assists).
The Timberwolves have given up the 4th-most offensive rebounds per game (11.3) in the NBA to the other team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to additional chances for scoring and assists).
CJ McCollum will not enjoy the home court advantage in this game. Playing while traveling tends to decreases stat production in all stat categories.
