Darius Garland has compiled a measly 7.7 assists per game this year, a sizeable decrease from his 8.5 assists per game last year.The Cleveland Cavaliers have played at the slowest pace-of-play in the NBA this year.The Knicks have played at the slowest pace in the league over the last 25 games away from their home city, which should lead to decreased possessions for the Cavaliers.The Cleveland Cavaliers rank as the 6th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
