Jordan Clarkson has compiled a mere 1.1 defensive rebounds per game this season, significantly lower than his 2.5 defensive rebounds per game last season.The Utah Jazz have played at the 5th-most lethargic pace in the NBA over the last 5 games.This year when they have the home court advantage, their opposition has grabbed 14.3 offensive boards per game (highest in the league) vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder (retaining possessions that can spark additional opportunities for offense).Jordan Clarkson will not enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home court generally reduces player performance across the board.
