The 6th-fastest tempo home team in the NBA over the last 20 games has been the Mavericks.Offensive rebounds retain possession and result in bonus opportunities for scoring and assists, and the Mavericks grade out 9thbest in in the league at home with 10.4 offensive rebounds per game over the last 20 games.Away from home, the Pelicans have allowed the least offensive boards per game (9.1) in the league to their opposition this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer chances for scoring and assists).Josh Green figures to see a spike in performance for all stats on account of controlling the home court advantage in this game.
