Key Factors

Favors Over

Out of all players in the league, LeBron James registers in the 92nd percentile for shot attempts from downtown, putting up 6.7 per game since the start of last season.
Out of all players in the NBA, LeBron James measures in the 98th percentile for playing time, tallying a massive 35.8 minutes per game since the start of last season.

Favors Under

Compared to last year's 26.7% mark, LeBron James's three-point performance has declined this year to 25.6%.
Since the start of last season when they are the visiting squad, the opposing team's starting PFs have averaged 27.4% on 3-pointers (14th-worst in the league) against the Rockets, creating a difficult matchup.
The Lakers are expected to suffer a reduction in opportunities in this contest from squaring off against the least up-tempo pace home offense in the NBA this year (the Rockets).
The Lakers have been the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league on their home court since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate further opportunities for scoring and assists).
LeBron James will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home court usually reduces player performance in all facets of the game.
