The Minnesota Timberwolves have played at the 3rd-speediest pace-of-play in the league with the home court advantage this year.The Warriors have played at the quickest pace-of-play in the league this year, which should boost opportunities for the Timberwolves.Without the home court advantage, the Warriors have allowed the 5th-most offensive rebounds per game (9.6) in the league to opposing squads over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create added opportunities for scoring and assists).Jaylen Nowell will receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing at home generally improves player production in all stat categories.
