In contrast to last season's 9.0 clip, Klay Thompson's three-point attempts have diminished this season to 7.7 per game.The matchup vs. Sacramento is a tough one for threes; when the Sacramento Kings have the home court advantage, the opposition's starting PGs have put up the 9th-lowest three rate in the NBA this year (30.6%).The Dallas Mavericks are expected to suffer a reduction in possessions today from being pitted against the 2nd-least up-tempo pace offense in the league over the last 5 games (the Sacramento Kings).The Mavericks have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 15 games when playing on the road (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate additional opportunities for scoring and assists).Klay Thompson stands to see a decline in efficiency across the board due to playing away from home in this contest.
