In comparison to last year's 19.0 clip, Lauri Markkanen's points per game have increased this year to 27.1.The matchup vs. the Orlando Magic is a favorable one for 3-pointers; the other team's starting SFs have tallied the 8th-most treys per game in the league this year (1.9).The 4th-quickest pace-of-play team in the league this year has been the Jazz.The Jazz are expected to see an increase in plays in this contest from squaring off against the 4th-fastest pace-of-play team in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Magic).The Utah Jazz check in as the 4th-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games while playing on the road (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create new opportunities for scoring and assists).
