Sam Merrill has averaged 0.2 steals per game when playing away from home this year, ranking in the 13th percentile -- one of the worst in the league in this category.The 5th-most sluggish pace-of-play team in the NBA over the last 15 games has been the Cavaliers.The Cavaliers are expected to experience a decrease in opportunities in this game from competing against the slowest pace home offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Boston Celtics).Sam Merrill will not receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing without the home court advantage generally reduces player production in all facets of the game.
