The matchup against Houston is a tough one for 3-pointers; when the Houston Rockets are on the road, the opposing team's starting SGs have put up the 13th-lowest three percentage in the league this year (24.8%).The San Antonio Spurs will likely suffer a drop-off in opportunities in this game from being pitted against the 3rd-most lethargic pace-of-play visiting offense in the league this year (the Houston Rockets).The San Antonio Spurs rank as the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA playing at home this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).Malaki Branham will not possess the home court advantage in this game. Playing without the home court advantage tends to lower stat production in all facets of the game.
