This year when they are on the road, the opposition's starting PGs have registered 13.3 points per game (15th-lowest in the league) against the Bulls, designating this as a challenging matchup for offensive output.The Milwaukee Bucks are expected to suffer a reduction in plays in this contest from facing the least up-tempo pace home team in the league this year (the Chicago Bulls).Offensive rebounds continue possession and lead to extra chances for scoring and assists, but the Milwaukee Bucks grade out 5thworst in in the league on the road with just 9.4 offensive rebounds per game this year.Without the home court advantage, the Bulls have allowed the 10th-most offensive boards per game (11.5) in the NBA to opposing clubs over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce added opportunities for scoring and assists).In contrast to last year's 8.8 rate, Damian Lillard's foul shots drained have dropped this year to 7.9 per game.
