Onyeka Okongwu has been called for 3.0 personal fouls per game with the home court advantage this year, placing him in the 93rd percentile -- among the league's most foul-prone.The Atlanta Hawks have been the 3rd-least aggressive offense in the NBA this year when it comes to three-point attempts.The Mavericks have played at the least up-tempo pace-of-play in the league while traveling this year, which should decrease opportunities for the Hawks.Away from home, the Mavericks have given up the 2nd-most offensive rebounds per game (13.2) in the league to opposing squads over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to additional chances for scoring and assists).This matchup may be a favorable one for drawing fouls; their opposition have attempted a whopping 26.6 free throws per game over the last 5 games (4th-most in the NBA).
