The Philadelphia 76ers will likely get a boost in plays today from squaring off against the 3rd-speediest pace-of-play road team in the league over the last 15 games (the Bucks).Offensive rebounds retain possession and create bonus opportunities for scoring and assists, and the Philadelphia 76ers grade out 5thbest in in the league with the home court advantage with 11.4 offensive rebounds per game this year.While playing on the road, the Bucks have allowed the 7th-least offensive rebounds per game (9.4) in the league to opposing teams over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional chances for scoring and assists).De'Anthony Melton has converted a terrific 1.9 foul shots per game this year, significantly more than his 0.9 rate last year.This year when they are on their home court, opposing clubs have attempted 22.0 foul shots per game (10th-fewest in the NBA) against the Milwaukee Bucks, making it tough to get to the foul line.
