Tre Jones has been on the court for 30.0 minutes per game over the last 15 games, 4.3 higher than he's been on the court for in all games this season.The Spurs have played at the 4th-fastest pace-of-play in the league this year.The Spurs are expected to see a spike in opportunities today from squaring off against the 9th-fastest pace-of-play team in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Pelicans).While on the road, the Pelicans have given up the least offensive boards per game (8.8) in the NBA to opposing clubs this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce further chances for scoring and assists).Tre Jones will receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing at home generally increases stat production in all facets of the game.
