The matchup vs. Sacramento is a favorable one for shots from behind the three-point arc; when the Kings are playing at home, the opposition's starting SGs have tallied the 26th-most 3-point attempts per game in the NBA this year (7.0).The Clippers will likely see an increase in plays today from sharing the court with the 4th-quickest pace-of-play home offense in the league this year (the Kings).Offensive rebounds maintain possession and spark added chances for scoring and assists, and the Clippers rank 7thbest in in the NBA when playing at home with 13.0 offensive boards per game over the last 5 games.The Kings have given up the 3rd-least offensive boards per game (9.1) in the NBA to opposing squads this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate additional chances for scoring and assists).
