Gordon Hayward Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 4.5 (-109/-119).
Key Factors
Favors Over
The Hornets will likely get a boost in plays today from competing against the 4th-fastest tempo team in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Philadelphia 76ers).
Over the last 5 games when they are at home, opposing squads have brought down 8.8 offensive boards per game (4th-lowest in the league) against the 76ers (lessening possessions that could otherwise generate more opportunities for offense).
Favors Under
The most sluggish pace-of-play team in the NBA over the last 5 games has been the Charlotte Hornets.
Offensive rebounds retain possession and produce additional chances for scoring and assists, but the Charlotte Hornets grade out 2ndworst in in the league with just 8.9 offensive boards per game over the last 10 games.
