Paul George off-target in Pacers' loss to the Wizards
Indiana Pacers forward Paul George struggled with his shot Thursday, going 6-for-19 from the field and 1-for-7 from three for 17 points in a loss to the Washington Wizards.
What It Means:
George heads into the All-Star break on a shooting slump, having made just 10 of his last 38 shots. He has averaged only 17.5 points in his last four games while shooting 34.8 percent from the floor. Hopefully the time off will get his shot right as the Pacers next game comes against the Memphis Grizzlies next Friday.
George was the worst player on the floor Thursday night as he posted a -17 plus/minus in 37 minutes with a -41.47 nERD rating, according to numberFire live.
