Royce O'Neale has sunk just 40.8% of his field goals this season, significantly less than his 47.0 rate last season.Royce O'Neale has averaged 3.0 personal fouls per game without the home court advantage this year, ranking in the 92nd percentile -- among the league's most foul-prone.This matchup is a difficult one for three-point attempts; the other team have totaled the 3rd-least three attempts per game in the league over the last 15 games when the Celtics are playing at home (36.9).The Brooklyn Nets check in as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).The Celtics have played at the 5th-slowest pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games, which should lead to decreased possessions for the Nets.
