The matchup against Brooklyn is a challenging one for shots from the field; when the Brooklyn Nets are the visiting team, the opposition's starting PGs have posted the 15th-lowest field goal percentage in the league since the start of last season (41.5%).The Brooklyn Nets have played at the 7th-most sluggish tempo in the NBA over the last 5 games, which should decrease opportunities for the 76ers.The Philadelphia 76ers have been the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league while playing at home this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).Over the last 5 games when they are on the road, the opposition's starting PGs have attempted 2.6 free throws per game (8th-lowest in the NBA) vs. the Brooklyn Nets, making it tough to draw fouls.Tyrese Maxey will likely suffer a drop-off in efficiency in all stat categories due to being on the road in this contest.
