Klay Thompson has tallied 0.3 offensive rebounds per game when playing away from home this year, ranking in the 21st percentile -- one of the worst in the league by this standard.The Golden State Warriors have played at the 5th-least up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 5 games away from their home court.The Hawks have played at the 9th-most lethargic pace in the NBA over the last 5 games, which should decrease opportunities for the Warriors.When playing at home, the Hawks have given up the 3rd-most offensive rebounds per game (12.6) in the NBA to their opposition over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce added chances for scoring and assists).Klay Thompson will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing on the road generally lowers player production in all facets of the game.
