The Utah Jazz will likely suffer a reduction in possessions in this contest from facing the 2nd-most lethargic pace-of-play offense in the NBA over the last 15 games (the New Orleans Pelicans).While on their home court, the New Orleans Pelicans have allowed the 5th-most offensive boards per game (11.8) in the league to the other team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore lead to additional chances for scoring and assists).Walker Kessler will not possess the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home court generally worsens stat production in all facets of the game.
