When it comes to shots from behind the three-point arc, the least aggressive offense in the NBA while playing at home since the start of last season has been the Pelicans.The matchup vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves is a difficult one for three-point attempts; the other team's starting PFs have averaged the 6th-least three attempts per game in the league since the start of last season (4.2).The {OPP_TEAM} will likely see a decline in plays today from sharing the court with the 8th-most lethargic tempo offense in the NBA this year (the Timberwolves).While playing at home, the Timberwolves have given up the 5th-most offensive boards per game (11.2) in the NBA to opposing teams since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore produce added opportunities for scoring and assists).Jeremiah Robinson-Earl is expected to suffer a drop-off in production in all facets of the game in light of playing away from hom in this contest.
