Analysis

Rui Hachimura Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 0.5 (+107/-139).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 0.5 @ +109 before it was bet up to 0.5 @ +107.

Key Factors

Favors Over

Rui Hachimura has tallied 1.2 personal fouls per game when playing away from home this year, ranking in the 21st percentile -- among the league's least-whistled.
The Los Angeles Lakers have played at the fastest pace-of-play in the league when playing away from home this year.
The Los Angeles Lakers have been the 3rd-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 10 games while playing on the road (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce additional chances for scoring and assists).

Favors Under

The Rockets have played at the 7th-most lethargic pace in the league over the last 15 games in their home city, which should reduce plays for the Lakers.
While playing at home, the Rockets have allowed the 3rd-most offensive rebounds per game (11.6) in the NBA to opposing teams this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce new opportunities for scoring and assists).
Rui Hachimura will not have the home court advantage in this game. Playing while traveling tends to lowers player performance in all facets of the game.
