Out of all players in the NBA, Paul George comes in at the 90th percentile for personal fouls, compiling a massive 2.7 fouls per game when playing on the road this year.Over the last 15 games when they are the visiting team, the other team's starting SFs have totaled 3.9 3-point attempts per game (2nd-fewest in the NBA) against the Portland Trail Blazers, identifying this as a hard matchup.The LA Clippers have played at the slowest tempo in the NBA over the last 5 games.The Trail Blazers have played at the 3rd-most lethargic pace-of-play in the league in their home stadium this year, which should lead to decreased plays for the LA Clippers.The LA Clippers check in as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games while on the road (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).
