The matchup vs. the Orlando Magic is a favorable one for threes; the opposing team's starting SFs have averaged the 8th-most three-pointers per game in the NBA this year (1.9).The Trail Blazers have played at the most up-tempo pace in the league while playing on the road this year.The Portland Trail Blazers are expected to see a rise in plays in this game from squaring off against the 5th-most up-tempo pace-of-play home team in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Magic).The Trail Blazers check in as the best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA while on the road this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore create added chances for scoring and assists).
