In contrast to last season's 29.2% clip, Jeremy Sochan's 3-point efficiency has decreased this season to 19.1%.The matchup against the Timberwolves is a tough one; they have given up the least points per game in the NBA to the opposition's starting PFs this year (14.5).The 6th-slowest pace road offense in the league over the last 5 games has been the Spurs.The Timberwolves have played at the 4th-most sluggish tempo in the NBA over the last 15 games, which should lead to fewer plays for the San Antonio Spurs.The Spurs have been the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
