In contrast to last year's 7.3 clip, Jalen Green's shot attempts from downtown have declined this year to 6.1 per game.This year, the other team's starting SGs have totaled 4.9 3-point attempts per game (12th-fewest in the NBA) against the Nuggets, creating a difficult matchup.The 3rd-most sluggish pace team in the league this year has been the Rockets.The Houston Rockets will likely experience a decrease in opportunities today from squaring off against the 5th-most lethargic pace-of-play home offense in the league this year (the Denver Nuggets).Offensive rebounds maintain possession and produce bonus chances for scoring and assists, but the Houston Rockets rank 4thworst in in the league as the road team with just 9.4 offensive rebounds per game this year.
