Giannis Antetokounmpo has accumulated 4.0 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 0.8 higher than he's accumulated overall this year.The matchup against Brooklyn is a tough one for three-pointers; when the Nets have the home court advantage, the opposing team's starting PFs have averaged the 9th-least shots from downtown per game in the NBA since the start of last season (1.3).The Nets have played at the 8th-slowest pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games, which should reduce plays for the Bucks.While playing at home, the Nets have given up the 2nd-most offensive rebounds per game (12.3) in the NBA to opposing squads over the last 15 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to added opportunities for scoring and assists).Giannis Antetokounmpo will not receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home court tends to worsens player production across the board.
