Taurean Prince has averaged 2.3 personal fouls per game this year, putting him among the most foul-prone players in the NBA (75th percentile).The Nets have played at the 4th-slowest pace-of-play in the league over the last 5 games, which should lead to fewer plays for the Timberwolves.The Minnesota Timberwolves have been the 5th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).The Nets have allowed the most offensive rebounds per game (11.9) in the league to their opposition over the last 20 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore lead to new opportunities for scoring and assists).Taurean Prince will not possess the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing without the home court advantage generally worsens stat production across the board.
