Key Factors

Favors Over

Among all players in the league, Simone Fontecchio ranks in the 86th percentile for 3-point efficiency with a an exceptional 40.6% rate this year.
The Utah Jazz have played at the speediest pace in the NBA over the last 15 games.
The Jazz check in as the best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 25 games away from home (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to added chances for scoring and assists).
This year, opposing clubs have captured 10.2 offensive boards per game (7th-fewest in the league) vs. the Knicks (turning over possessions that could otherwise spark further opportunities for offense).
Simone Fontecchio has sunk 100.0% of his free throw attempts over the last 5 games, 18.3% more than he's put through the hoop over the course of the year.

Favors Under

The matchup vs. New York is a difficult one for shots from the field; when the New York Knicks are on their home court, opposing starting SFs have posted the 15th-lowest field goal rate in the league this year (33.3%).
The Utah Jazz are expected to see a decline in opportunities in this game from being pitted against the least up-tempo tempo home team in the NBA this year (the New York Knicks).
As a team, the Utah Jazz have been lousy at getting to the free-throw line on the road: 6th-worst in the NBA this year, totaling a measly 20.8 free throw attempts per game.
The matchup against the Knicks may be a tough one for drawing fouls; the other team's starting SFs have attempted just 2.5 free throws per game over the last 15 games (4th-least in the league).
Simone Fontecchio stands to suffer a reduction in performance for all stats due to playing away from home in this contest.
