The matchup against the Bucks is a positive one; they have given up the most points per game in the NBA to opposing starting PGs this year (21.7).The Charlotte Hornets are expected to get a boost in opportunities in this contest from competing against the 8th-most up-tempo pace-of-play home offense in the league over the last 6 games (the Milwaukee Bucks).Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and generate extra opportunities for scoring and assists, and the Hornets rank 7th-best in in the league as the visting team with 13.4 offensive rebounds per game over the last 5 games.This year when they are the visiting squad, the other team's starting PGs have attempted 4.6 free throws per game (5th-most in the NBA) vs. the Bucks, finding it easy to get to the charity stripe.
