This year, opposing starting PFs have put up 14.5 points per game (lowest in the NBA) against the Timberwolves, identifying this as a hard matchup for offensive output.The 3rd-least up-tempo pace-of-play team in the league over the last 15 games has been the Knicks.The New York Knicks will likely experience a decrease in plays in this game from competing against the 10th-most lethargic tempo team in the NBA over the last 15 games (the Minnesota Timberwolves).As it relates to drawing fouls, the Knicks's unimpressive 23.2 free throws per game comes in as the 8th-worst in the league this year.The matchup against Minnesota is a tough one for getting to the charity stripe; the opposing team's starting PFs have attempted a mere 3.1 free throws per game this year when the Minnesota Timberwolves are at home (9th-least in the NBA).
