Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant is in the midst of a rare cold spell from 3-point range over the last few games.

Since the All-Star break, the Suns have gone 1-2, and Durant has shot 5-for-23 (21.7%) from 3-point range in these games, despite shooting 42.3% from deep this season.

At one point, Durant was top-3 in the NBA in 3-point shooting percentage, but over his last eight games, Durant has gone a staggering 13-for-50 (26%) from deep. Before this, he was shooting 100-for-217 (46.1%) on the season.

“It’s just a mental thing, more than anything,” Durant said after practice yesterday.
