Kyle Lowry Points Scored Props • Miami
Kyle Lowry has accumulated 2.6 personal fouls per game this year, making him one of the most highest-fouling players in the NBA (86th percentile). The Knicks have played at the 3rd-most lethargic pace in the league over the last 5 games, which ought to lead to decreased opportunities for the Heat. The Miami Heat check in as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 25 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists). The matchup against New York is a hard one for getting to the foul line; the other team's starting PGs have attempted a mere 3.2 free throws per game this year when the Knicks are on their home court (11th-least in the league). Kyle Lowry will not enjoy the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing without the home court advantage usually lowers player performance in all stat categories.
