Shot terribly for most of the season and he gets lost a lot on D. He's come on at the right time though.
He shot 47/33 (57% TS) this year. I'd hardly call that "terrible." I've always been impressed by his D. Numbers back that up. 1.2 DBPM, 1.9 Defensive Win Shares. 7.5 REB/36 which is very good for a SG. Battled some injuries too, I believe.
He was at 53.3% TS prior to the all-star break. That's a pretty substantial jump in 24 games. As AussieBuck said, he came on at the right time for us down the stretch, especially with Brogdon, Snell, and Brown, being hurt. Pat Connaughton wasn't banged up, he fell out of the rotation. Those gaps in his game logs are DNP-CDs.
