This year, the other team's starting SFs have averaged 5.8 3-point attempts per game (highest in the NBA) vs. the Los Angeles Lakers, identifying this as a positive matchup.The Suns will likely see a rise in possessions in this game from facing the 9th-speediest tempo offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Los Angeles Lakers).The Phoenix Suns rank as the 3rd-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA when playing on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to added chances for scoring and assists).Over the last 17 games when they are away from home, the other team's starting SGs have attempted 3.2 free throws per game (10th-most in the league) vs. the Lakers, succeeding in their efforts to get to the charity stripe.
