Out of all players in the league, Jaden McDaniels ranks in the 99th percentile for personal fouls, logging a colossal 3.5 fouls per game without the home court advantage since the start of last season.The Timberwolves are expected to experience a decrease in possessions today from being pitted against the 9th-most lethargic pace-of-play team in the NBA this year (the Golden State Warriors).The Minnesota Timberwolves check in as the 8th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).This year when they are the visiting team, opposing clubs have collected 11.3 offensive rebounds per game (8th-highest in the NBA) vs. the Warriors (saving possessions that can lead to further chances for offense).Jaden McDaniels will not receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home city generally lowers player performance in all facets of the game.
