Jusuf Nurkic has been called for 3.2 personal fouls per game when playing on the road this year, placing him in the 97th percentile -- among the NBA's highest-fouling.Offensive rebounds continue possession and result in bonus opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Phoenix Suns grade out 1stworst in in the league with a mere 7.6 offensive boards per game over the last 10 games.The Atlanta Hawks have allowed the 6th-most offensive boards per game (11.2) in the NBA to the other team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore create new chances for scoring and assists).Jusuf Nurkic will not enjoy the home court advantage in this contest. Playing while traveling tends to lower stat production across the board.
