Paolo Banchero has tallied 3.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 1.0 more than he's tallied overall this year.The Orlando Magic have played at the most sluggish pace-of-play in the NBA as the visting team this year.The Magic will likely see a decline in opportunities today from facing the most sluggish tempo offense in the league this year (the Boston Celtics).The Magic check in as the 10th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 15 games without the home court advantage (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).Paolo Banchero will not enjoy the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing on the road usually decreases player performance across the board.
