My NBA Calendar app now reflects the 1st part of the 2020-21 regular season. The Heat have the most games (10) in which they have a true rest advantage over the opponent, meaning they are entering the game rested while the other team is on a back-to-back. positiveresidual.com/shiny/nba/

The Rockets' 5 back-to-backs is tied for the fewest in the league alongside the Lakers, Raptors, and Heat. positiveresidual.com/shiny/nba/

The Knicks have the most games in which they have a true rest disadvantage, meaning they are on the second leg of a back-to-back while their opponent is rested. cc: @JeffreyBellone positiveresidual.com/shiny/nba/

The Grizzlies have only 2 games in which they have a true rest disadvantage, the fewest total in the NBA through March 4 (the current season schedule only goes up to this date).
