Slumping Paul George says 'shooting the ball feels funny'

Oklahoma City star Paul George was a shell of himself in the Thunder's 111-107 loss to the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. He hit just 5-of-19 from the field, dropping his shooting percentage to 37.1 since the All-Star break.

The five-time All-Star admitted after the game that his shot is a little broken at the moment, and he's trying to fix it.

"There's something mechanical in my shot," George said, via ESPN. "I've had struggles throughout the season and my career of shooting, but it's all just been about not making shots. I don't know what it is. It feels funny. Shooting the ball feels funny. So I'm going to work with the trainers and try and figure that out. But I don't feel myself shooting the ball right now."

George was the Thunder's best shooter before he lost his rhythm after the All-Star break. He hit 43.2 percent from deep on 7.7 attempts per game, which made him one of the most prolific shooters in the league at that time.

He hasn't made more than half his shots in any of the 20 games since returning from the break. He's still averaging 19.1 points per game over that stretch and has made just 28.9 percent of his threes.
