Deni Avdija has compiled 5.4 defensive boards per game over the last 5 games playing at home, 1.1 more than he's compiled in all games this season at home.The Trail Blazers have played at the 5th-fastest pace in the NBA at home this year.The Spurs have played at the 9th-fastest tempo in the league over the last 5 games, which should boost plays for the Portland Trail Blazers.The Trail Blazers have been the 3rd-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).Deni Avdija should see an increase in productivity in all facets of the game in light of enjoying the home court advantage in this contest.
