Actually, Beal looks exceptionally good in the clutch so far this year, other than the turnovers. He is shooting a better FG% than everybody in the top 25. Here is that same chart:
In reality, it doesn't make a lot of sense to compare total numbers. Some guys have had more clutch opportunities than others. If you look at the guys with the highest USG rates, and weed out the low-minute guys with sample size issues, it looks like this:
Beal still leads everyone in TS%, but has a frightening TO ratio as well. The PIE (Player Impact Estimate) is the best stat they use to consolidate all of the statistical production. It's sort of like PER in that it would encapsulate the positives of his shooting percentage while factoring the negatives from his turnovers. Going by PIE, Beal is still among the very best in the group, behind only Embiid, Butler, Lillard, Kawhi, Bane and Jokic.
Of all the things to complain about this season, Beal's lack of clutchness isn't one of them.
