The matchup vs. New Orleans is a hard one for three-point shots; when the New Orleans Pelicans are at home, the opposing team's starting SFs have averaged the 10th-least treys per game in the league this year (1.5).The Pelicans have played at the 7th-slowest pace in the league over the last 5 games with the home court advantage, which should reduce plays for the Philadelphia 76ers.The 76ers rank as the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league as the visting team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce further chances for scoring and assists).Justin Edwards will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing without the home court advantage generally decreases stat production across the board.
