The matchup vs. the Charlotte Hornets is a difficult one for shot attempts from the field; the opposing team's starting PGs have totaled the least shot attempts per game in the NBA this year (11.3).The Dallas Mavericks will likely see a decline in opportunities in this game from sharing the court with the 3rd-slowest tempo offense in the league over the last 10 games (the Charlotte Hornets).Offensive rebounds preserve possession and result in added chances for scoring and assists, but the Mavericks rank 1stworst in in the NBA away from their home court with a mere 7.7 offensive rebounds per game over the last 20 games.Relative to last year's 10.5 mark, Luka Doncic's number of free throws has been reduced this year to 8.7 free throws per game.This year, the opposition's starting PGs have attempted 2.9 free throws per game (3rd-fewest in the league) against the Hornets, finding it difficult to get to the charity stripe.
