Russell Westbrook has shot and missed 5.2 shot attempts from the field per game this year, a sizeable decrease from his 8.0 mark last year.As it relates to shooting, the Clippers's excellent 121.2 points per game settles in as the 3rd-strongest in the NBA over the last 20 games.On the road, the Minnesota Timberwolves have given up the 4th-least offensive boards per game (9.5) in the NBA to opposing squads this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce further chances for scoring and assists).This year, opposing clubs have attempted 21.9 free throws per game (7th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Timberwolves, finding it difficult to get to the charity stripe.Russell Westbrook will likely see a rise in output in all stat categories due to enjoying the home court advantage in this matchup.
