The Pacers will likely suffer a reduction in possessions in this contest from facing the 4th-most lethargic pace-of-play away team in the league this year (the Jazz).Among all players in the league, Obi Toppin comes in at the 22nd percentile for drawing fouls, posting only 0.7 foul shot attempts per game when playing on the road since the start of last season.As a team, the Pacers have been quite unsuccesful at getting to the foul line of late: 7th-worst in the NBA over the last 5 games with the home court advantage, drawing a mere 20.0 foul shot attempts per game.
