Donovan Mitchell has tallied 3.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games playing at home, 1.2 higher than he's tallied over the course of the year at home.This year when they have the home court advantage, the opposition's starting SGs have averaged 38.1% on field goal attempts (4th-worst in the league) against the Celtics, resulting in a hard matchup.The Cavaliers have played at the 3rd-slowest pace in the league over the last 20 games as the home team.The Boston Celtics have played at the least up-tempo tempo in the NBA over the last 15 games on the road, which should reduce possessions for the Cleveland Cavaliers.The Cavaliers rank as the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 25 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional chances for scoring and assists).
