Compared to last year's 24.6 rate, Donovan Mitchell's points per game have jumped this year to 29.1.The matchup against Orlando is a positive one; when the Orlando Magic are the visiting squad, they have given up the most points per game in the league to the other team's starting SGs this year (20.2).The 2nd-fastest pace-of-play home team in the NBA over the last 25 games has been the Cleveland Cavaliers.The Cleveland Cavaliers will likely see a spike in opportunities in this contest from squaring off against the 5th-most up-tempo tempo road offense in the league over the last 5 games (the Magic).The Cavaliers rank as the 3rd-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to added chances for scoring and assists).
