Taurean Prince has been called for 3.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 0.9 higher than he's been called for in all games this year.The Los Angeles Lakers will likely experience a decrease in opportunities today from facing the least up-tempo tempo offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Pelicans).The Lakers rank as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA as the road team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).When playing at home, the New Orleans Pelicans have allowed the 4th-most offensive rebounds per game (12.4) in the league to opposing teams over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to new chances for scoring and assists).Taurean Prince will not enjoy the home court advantage in this contest. Playing away from your home city tends to decrease player production in all facets of the game.
