Kyle Kuzma has posted a measly 6.4 defensive rebounds per game this season, quite a bit lower than his 7.4 defensive rebounds per game last season.Offensive rebounds retain possession and spark additional opportunities for scoring and assists, but the Washington Wizards grade out 7thworst in in the NBA away from their home court with only 9.6 offensive rebounds per game this year.This year when they are away from home, their opposition has secured 12.1 offensive boards per game (highest in the league) vs. the Indiana Pacers (continuing possessions that can result in additional opportunities for offense).Kyle Kuzma will not possess the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing without the home court advantage tends to lowers stat production in all stat categories.
