Key Factors
Favors Over
The Atlanta Hawks have played at the most up-tempo pace in the league over the last 15 games with the home court advantage.
The Atlanta Hawks rank as the best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to added opportunities for scoring and assists).
The Celtics have allowed the 9th-least offensive rebounds per game (9.9) in the NBA to opposing clubs this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).
Jalen Johnson will enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing at home generally boosts player production in all facets of the game.
Favors Under
Jalen Johnson has been called for 2.6 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games at home, 1.3 more than he's been called for in all games this season at home.
The Celtics have played at the 3rd-most sluggish pace in the league over the last 20 games away from their home stadium, which should lead to fewer plays for the Hawks.
