Matisse Thybulle has posted 2.2 assists per game over the last 5 games, 0.9 higher than he's posted in all games this year.The Portland Trail Blazers have been the best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA while at home this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore create new opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 15 games when they are playing at home, the other team has nabbed 8.3 offensive rebounds per game (2nd-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Hornets (turning over possessions that could otherwise lead to bonus chances for offense).Matisse Thybulle should get a boost in output in all facets of the game due to holding the home court advantage in this contest.
