Among all players in the NBA, Santi Aldama places in the 81st percentile for technical fouls, posting a massive 0.1 fouls per game this year.The Memphis Grizzlies will likely experience a decrease in plays in this contest from sharing the court with the 2nd-most sluggish pace team in the NBA this year (the Phoenix Suns).The Grizzlies have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 25 games, their opposition has brought down 11.1 offensive rebounds per game (9th-highest in the league) against the Suns (continuing possessions that can create bonus opportunities for offense).Santi Aldama has made just 57.9% of his foul shot attempts this year, significantly less than his 70.0 rate last year.
