The matchup vs. Boston is a challenging one for scoring; when the Celtics are away from home, the other team's starting SGs have compiled the 4th-lowest Field Goal% in the league this year (38.1%).The Celtics have played at the least up-tempo tempo in the NBA this year, which should lead to fewer plays for the Atlanta Hawks.The Hawks check in as the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 15 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce further opportunities for scoring and assists).This year, the opposing team's starting SGs have attempted 2.0 foul shots per game (6th-lowest in the NBA) against the Celtics, finding it difficult to get to the foul line.
