Anunoby has played 33.5 minutes per game this year, putting him among the most-used players in the league: 89th percentile.The Knicks are expected to see a rise in plays today from squaring off against the 8th-speediest pace-of-play visiting team in the league over the last 20 games (the Orlando Magic).Offensive rebounds maintain possession and bring about further chances for scoring and assists, and the Knicks grade out 13thbest in in the NBA while at home with 13.1 offensive boards per game this year.The Magic have given up the 2nd-least offensive boards per game (9.4) in the NBA to the other team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).O.G. Anunoby will likely see a spike in output in all facets of the game due to having the home court advantage in this contest.
