Herbert Jones has been on the court for 30.0 minutes per game this year, seeing the court more than most players in the league: 75th percentile.This year, the other team's starting SFs have totaled 2.3 three-pointers per game (29th-most in the NBA) against the Grizzlies, resulting in a positive matchup.The Pelicans have played at the 7th-most up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 5 games.The New Orleans Pelicans are expected to see an increase in opportunities today from competing against the 7th-speediest pace-of-play visiting team in the NBA this year (the Memphis Grizzlies).The Memphis Grizzlies have given up the 7th-least offensive rebounds per game (10.4) in the NBA to their opposition this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce extra chances for scoring and assists).
