Lauri Markkanen has averaged 3.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 0.8 higher than he's averaged in all games this year.When it comes to scoring, the Jazz's feeble 106.4 points per game rates 7th-worst in the league this year.This year when they are on the road, opposing starting PFs have totaled 10.8 shot attempts per game (9th-fewest in the league) vs. the Grizzlies, making this a hard matchup.Since the start of last season when they are on their home court, the other team's starting PFs have attempted 3.1 free throws per game (8th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Grizzlies, making it tough to get to the charity stripe.Lauri Markkanen should experience a decrease in efficiency across the board due to playing on the visting team in this game.
