Deni Avdija has averaged 3.4 personal fouls per game over the last 10 games, 0.9 higher than he's averaged over the course of the year.This year, the opposing team's starting SFs have averaged 40.6% on field goals (13th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Timberwolves, branding this as a tough matchup.The Washington Wizards will likely see a decline in possessions in this game from being pitted against the 8th-slowest tempo offense in the league over the last 25 games (the Minnesota Timberwolves).The Washington Wizards check in as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 5 games when they have the home court advantage, opposing clubs have collected 10.6 offensive rebounds per game (10th-highest in the league) against the Timberwolves (saving possessions that can bring about additional opportunities for offense).
