Key Factors

Favors Over

Haywood Highsmith has made 52.7% of his 3-pointers over the last 5 games, 16.7% more than he's converted from beyond the arc overall this year.
In regard to 3-pointers, the Heat's remarkable 13.9 made threes per game ranks 10th-most in the NBA this year.
The Miami Heat will likely see an increase in possessions in this contest from squaring off against the 5th-most up-tempo tempo home team in the league this year (the Cleveland Cavaliers).
Haywood Highsmith has sunk 87.5% of his foul shot attempts over the last 15 games, 16.7% more than he's converted over the course of the season.

Favors Under

Haywood Highsmith has committed 3.0 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 0.9 higher than he's committed over the course of the season.
The Heat have played at the slowest pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 15 games.
The Heat check in as the 5th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce further chances for scoring and assists).
Haywood Highsmith should experience a decrease in effectiveness in all stat categories in light of being on the road in this game.
