Key Factors

Favors Over

The Utah Jazz have played at the 5th-quickest pace in the league over the last 5 games away from home.
Offensive rebounds save possession and generate additional opportunities for scoring and assists, and the Utah Jazz grade out 5thbest in in the league with 12.0 offensive rebounds per game since the start of last season.
With the home court advantage, the Orlando Magic have allowed the 3rd-least offensive boards per game (9.5) in the NBA to opposing teams since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore lead to fewer chances for scoring and assists).
Walker Kessler will possess the home court advantage in this contest. Playing in your home stadium tends to boost player production across the board.
