Jonathan Kuminga has tallied 2.4 personal fouls per game this year, putting him among the highest-fouling players in the league (81st percentile).The Nuggets have played at the 3rd-slowest pace in the league over the last 10 games, which should reduce plays for the Warriors.As a team, the Golden State Warriors have been lousy at getting to the free throw line: worst in the NBA this year, tallying a measly 20.1 free throw attempts per game.This matchup may be a good one for drawing fouls; when the Nuggets are playing at home, the other team have attempted an enormous 24.6 foul shots per game over the last 25 games (9th-most in the NBA).Jonathan Kuminga will not enjoy the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home city tends to lowers player performance across the board.
