Deni Avdija has averaged 4.0 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games on the road, 1.3 higher than he's averaged over the course of the season on the road.This year when they are on the road, the other team's starting PFs have tallied 3.4 three attempts per game (11th-lowest in the NBA) against the Pelicans, designating this as a tough matchup.The Washington Wizards will likely suffer a reduction in possessions today from facing the 6th-least up-tempo pace-of-play team in the NBA over the last 25 games (the New Orleans Pelicans).The Wizards check in as the 3rd-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).This year when they are away from home, opposing squads have captured 11.3 offensive boards per game (8th-most in the league) vs. the Pelicans (saving possessions that can result in more chances for offense).
