Among all players in the NBA, Lauri Markkanen places in the 91st percentile for playing time, putting up a whopping 34.0 minutes per game while on his home court this year.The Jazz have played at the speediest pace in the league over the last 10 games playing at home.The Jazz will likely see a spike in opportunities today from squaring off against the 6th-fastest pace-of-play team in the league over the last 5 games (the Kings).The Utah Jazz check in as the 5th-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create added opportunities for scoring and assists).Lauri Markkanen should see an increase in performance across the board in light of holding the home court advantage in this matchup.
