Rudy Gobert has averaged 3.6 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games away from home, 1.1 more than he's averaged over the course of the season on the road.The 2nd-most lethargic pace-of-play offense in the NBA over the last 10 games has been the Minnesota Timberwolves.The Lakers have played at the 5th-least up-tempo pace in the NBA over the last 15 games in their home stadium, which should lead to fewer opportunities for the Timberwolves.Offensive rebounds continue possession and bring about extra chances for scoring and assists, but the Minnesota Timberwolves grade out 8thworst in in the league as the away team with just 10.2 offensive boards per game this year.Rudy Gobert stands to suffer a drop-off in efficiency in all facets of the game in light of being on the road in this contest.
