MEM vs LAL Picks
NBA PicksGabe Vincent has tallied 0.4 assists per game while at home this year, putting him in the 17th percentile -- among the league trailers in this category. Gabe Vincent has accumulated 3.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games, 1.2 higher than he's accumulated over the course of the year. The Lakers have played at the 4th-most sluggish pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 15 games. The Lakers have been the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 10 games when playing at home (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate further chances for scoring and assists).
The Grizzlies are expected to suffer a reduction in possessions in this game from competing against the 4th-least up-tempo pace offense in the NBA over the last 15 games (the Lakers). Ja Morant will not hold the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing away from your home court tends to reduce player production in all stat categories.
