Over the last 5 games, the opposition's starting SGs have logged 10.4 points per game (10th-fewest in the league) against the San Antonio Spurs, resulting in a hard matchup for offensive effectiveness.The Pelicans have played at the 5th-least up-tempo tempo in the NBA over the last 10 games while playing away from home.The Pelicans check in as the 10th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 10 games as the road team (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).The matchup against the Spurs may be a tough one for getting to the foul line; the other team's starting SGs have attempted a mere 1.6 free throws per game over the last 5 games (9th-least in the league).
