Paul George is struggling with his shooting, however he has the full support of Kawhi Leonard and Doc Rivers.
The superstar of the Los Angeles Clippers has a 29 percent shooting over the first four playoff games (20-of-69 FG), which marks the lowest field goal percentage of any player in the 2020 NBA playoffs with at least 25 shot attempts, per Ben Golliver of the Washington Post.
However, both Leonard and Rivers are optimistic George will return to his great form very soon.
“Just tell him to keep going. His time is coming. He had some easy looks tonight. Everybody did, but it’s not his fault. We were up big in the second quarter and I think everybody has a part in winning the basketball game.
We’re confident it’s gonna turn around for him. We got his back,” the superstar of the Clippers said on George.
“I just let him keep shooting. Listen, we clearly — we’ve got to get him more shots, and that’s on us. That’s on all of us. But he got great looks last night, and I just want him to get more of those and take more of those.
You know, he needs to shoot 20 plus times. He needs to get the ball up in the air. And he will. He will. He feel very confident about PG because I always have,” the head coach of the Clippers said, via Clutchpoints.
The series between the Dallas Mavericks and the Clippers are tied at 2-2. Game 5 will take place on Tuesday.
