The Miami Heat have played at the 2nd-most lethargic tempo in the NBA since the start of last season.The Heat have been the 4th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce further chances for scoring and assists).Among all players in the league, Nikola Jovic slots into the 22nd percentile for free-throw performance with a weak 68.6% rate since the start of last season.This year, the opposition's starting PFs have attempted 3.3 foul shots per game (8th-fewest in the league) vs. the Charlotte Hornets, finding it difficult to get to the foul line.Nikola Jovic will not receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home court usually worsens player production in all stat categories.
