Averaging 26.8 points per game, it wouldn’t seem like Kevin Durant has struggled over his last four games. But, if you take a closer look, he’s shooting an unusual 39% from the field and .06% from deep.
What’s wrong with the Slim Reaper?
The answer seems obvious, but it also goes much deeper than surface level.
Durant is playing without the Golden State Warriors renown leader, Stephen Curry. Curry’s absence has an impact throughout the entire team, and his performance really sets the tone for how the Dubs play.
Additionally, the Warriors are also playing without Draymond Green, the offense’s ignitor.
