Kyle Anderson has tallied 2.0 personal fouls per game this year, significantly more than his 2.1 fouls per game last year.This matchup is a positive one for 3-pointers; when the Knicks are on their home court, their opposition has totaled the 6th-most 3-pointers per game in the league against them this year (13.6).The Timberwolves are expected to experience a decrease in plays today from sharing the court with the most lethargic pace-of-play home team in the NBA this year (the New York Knicks).The Minnesota Timberwolves rank as the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA at home since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).In contrast to last season's 77.1% mark, Kyle Anderson's free-throw efficiency has been reduced this season to 65.0%.
