More assists at home is not uncommon at all. Notice sabonis has nearly 2 more per game at home as well. It’s all a combo of shooters being more comfortable at home and some slightly generous scorekeepers. I’d argue Jokic’s discrepancy is mostly due to the Denver altitude than anything else

It’s because roleplayers shoot better at home than away.

Denver’s got a pretty legit home court advantage with the altitude

There is an advantage playing in Denver. It takes away teams a couple days to acclimate to the elevation. You don’t always get these with the nba schedule.

Embiid is the king of consistency, he’s the same in the morning as he is at night and the same on the road as he is at home
