Key Factors

Favors Over

Out of all players in the NBA, Luka Doncic slots into the 99th percentile for three-point attempts, totaling 9.6 per game this year.
Luka Doncic has played 35.6 minutes per game when playing on the road this year, ranking him in the 96th percentile -- putting him among the most-utilized players in the league.
With respect to offense, the Los Angeles Lakers's exceptional 123.4 points per game while playing away from home comes in as the 4th-most in the NBA over the last 5 games.
The Lakers have played at the 10th-most up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 5 games as the visting team.
The Los Angeles Lakers will likely see a rise in opportunities in this contest from squaring off against the 6th-speediest tempo team in the league over the last 15 games (the Mavericks).

Favors Under

Luka Doncic has posted a measly 27.6 points per game this year, quite a bit less than his 32.7 points per game last year.
This year when they are on the road, opposing starting PGs have averaged 4.6 three attempts per game (4th-lowest in the league) against the Mavericks, branding this as a hard matchup.
Offensive rebounds continue possession and produce added chances for scoring and assists, but the Lakers grade out 3rdworst in in the NBA away from home with a mere 9.1 offensive boards per game over the last 20 games.
The matchup against the Mavericks may be a tough one for drawing fouls; opposing starting PGs have attempted a measly 2.9 free throws per game over the last 20 games (least in the league).
Luka Doncic will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home city tends to reduce stat production for all stats.
