The Charlotte Hornets have played at the 9th-fastest pace in the NBA over the last 10 games.The Charlotte Hornets are expected to see an increase in opportunities today from facing the 10th-speediest tempo away team in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Heat).The Hornets check in as the 9th-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to additional chances for scoring and assists).The Miami Heat have given up the 3rd-least offensive rebounds per game (9.4) in the NBA to opposing teams this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further opportunities for scoring and assists).This matchup is a difficult one for getting to the free-throw line; opposing squads have attempted a lowly 18.8 foul shots per game when the Heat are the visiting squad this year (least in the league).
