The matchup against the Warriors is a good one for shots from behind the three-point arc; the other team's starting PFs have totaled the 27th-most 3-point attempts per game in the NBA over the last 10 games (5.7).The Golden State Warriors have played at the 5th-quickest pace-of-play in the league over the last 10 games, which should raise possessions for the Utah Jazz.The Jazz check in as the 2nd-best offensive rebounding offense in the league this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to new opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 20 games when they are at home, their opposition has secured 9.9 offensive rebounds per game (9th-lowest in the league) against the Warriors (minimizing possessions that could otherwise generate more opportunities for offense).John Collins should see a spike in productivity for all stats as a result of owning the home court advantage in this game.
