Georges Niang has put up 0.9 assists per game while at home since the start of last season, placing him in the 24th percentile -- among the league trailers in this category.Offensive rebounds maintain possession and lead to added opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Cleveland Cavaliers rank 8thworst in in the league on their home court with only 9.7 offensive boards per game since the start of last season.At home, the Oklahoma City Thunder have allowed the most offensive rebounds per game (12.2) in the NBA to their opposition since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore provide new opportunities for scoring and assists).Georges Niang will not enjoy the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home city tends to reduce player performance across the board.
