Michael Carter-Williams' early second season struggles for the Sixers

Michael Carter-Williams continues to round in to shape after May shoulder surgery kept him sidelined for the summer and greatly hindered his ability to work on and improve aspects of his game.

The reigning Rookie of the Year has played in less than 10 games so far this season and thus it is too early to make any sort of sweeping statements about his status as a player. Carter-Williams’ play in his second season however hasn’t been pretty, and will begin to be cause for concern if it isn’t improved upon.

In his 30 minutes of action per game this season, Carter-Williams is averaging 15.7 points, 5.9 rebounds, 4 assists, and 1.1 steals. All of these numbers are down from last year, but the statistical drop isn’t the only cause for concern. One of the biggest flaws in Carter-Williams’ game last season was his inability to shoot consistently, as he ended his rookie campaign with a true shooting percentage of 48. While improving upon his shot would have been at the top of Carter-Williams summer to-do list, shoulder surgery put a wrench in those plans, and it shows.

Carter-Williams is shooting an uninspiring 36% from the field after seven games, and that number drops to an anemic 20% when he takes it past the arc. At this point, those numbers give Carter-Williams a true shooting percentage of 42. Not very good for a starting point guard in a league where the ability to hit the long ball consistently is becoming increasingly important.
