The Boston Celtics have played at the 3rd-slowest pace-of-play in the league in their home stadium this year, which should decrease possessions for the Pacers.Offensive rebounds preserve possession and result in additional chances for scoring and assists, but the Pacers grade out 2ndworst in in the league with just 8.6 offensive boards per game this year.Jarace Walker has made just 57.7% of his free throws this year, significantly less than his 87.5 mark last year.Jarace Walker will not enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing on the road tends to lower stat production for all stats.
