The Philadelphia 76ers dropped their third game out of their last four on Monday night, losing 109-99 to the Phoenix Suns to fall to 14-20 on the season. While the list of reasons for the Sixers’ struggles this year would resemble a CVS receipt, one that came to the forefront on Monday was Paul George’s shooting struggles.
The 34-year-old veteran shot just 5-of-18 from the field, and is now shooting just 41.4 percent from the field on the season, the worst mark of his career outside of the 2014-15 year when he played just six games after coming back from his awful broken leg injury with Team USA.
