Stephen Curry has posted an impressive 6.4 assists per game this season, a big improvement over his 5.1 assists per game last season.The Warriors have played at the 3rd-quickest pace in the NBA over the last 5 games.The Warriors will likely get a boost in possessions in this game from competing against the 3rd-most up-tempo pace-of-play team in the league over the last 15 games (the Hawks).The Golden State Warriors check in as the 2nd-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games as the home team (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore provide additional chances for scoring and assists).Stephen Curry should see a spike in productivity for all stats due to having the home court advantage in this matchup.
