Compared to last season's 33.6% clip, Malik Beasley's three-point ability has jumped this season to 43.1%.
When it comes to shooting, the Milwaukee Bucks's superb 122.0 points per game measures as the 2nd-highest in the league this year.
The Bucks have played at the 3rd-speediest tempo in the NBA over the last 20 games when playing away from home.
Over the last 10 games when they are away from home, the other team has grabbed 8.7 offensive rebounds per game (5th-fewest in the league) against the Minnesota Timberwolves (reducing possessions that could otherwise generate further opportunities for offense).
Over the last 5 games when they are on the road, the opposing team's starting SGs have attempted 3.6 free throws per game (25th-highest in the NBA) vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves, finding it easy to get to the free-throw line.

Favors Under

Malik Beasley has been called for 0.1 technical fouls per game this year, placing him among the most foul-prone players in the NBA when it comes to technicals (82nd percentile).
The matchup vs. Minnesota is a tough one for three-pointers; when the Minnesota Timberwolves are at home, the opposition's starting SGs have totaled the 15th-least three-point shots per game in the NBA this year (1.3).
The Milwaukee Bucks are expected to experience a decrease in possessions in this contest from facing the 3rd-most sluggish pace offense in the league over the last 25 games (the Minnesota Timberwolves).
The Milwaukee Bucks have been the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
Malik Beasley has made a mere 59.1% of his free throws this year, quite a bit lower than his 72.8 rate last year.
