Over the last 20 games, opposing starting PGs have notched 17.1 points per game (4th-fewest in the NBA) against the Toronto Raptors, branding this as a tough matchup for offensive effectiveness.The Raptors have played at the 2nd-most lethargic pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 5 games in their home city, which should decrease opportunities for the Denver Nuggets.The Nuggets have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).The matchup vs. Toronto may be a hard one for drawing fouls; the opposition's starting PGs have attempted a mere 3.3 free throws per game over the last 5 games when the Toronto Raptors are on their home court (5th-least in the NBA).
