The Raptors have been the 5th-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA as the road team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to new chances for scoring and assists).The New York Knicks have allowed the least offensive boards per game (7.3) in the NBA to opposing squads this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further opportunities for scoring and assists).Gary Trent Jr. will enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing in your home city generally increases player performance for all stats.
