Is Kawhi washed? (alien.top)

He's averaging 20.5/5.2/3.7 on 56% TS this season. Solid numbers but not what we have come to expect from him. Instead of playing like the superstar he once was, he's playing like a glorified Khris Middleton.

He's 32 which is right around the point where a lot of stars fall off anyway. Did his latest injury in the playoffs end his prime?

people asked this exact same question when he started playing last year too. had like 10-20 games where he looked bad, then it was like a switch flipped and he shot high volume 50/50/80 splits for the rest of the year

he looks significantly skinnier. he’s probably having to readjust to getting to his spots without as much muscle to help bully his way there.

kawhi loves playing basketball. he’s obsessed with it like all the greats. that skill is not gonna go away
