Two consecutive games were not good! Why did the 76ers forward star suddenly decline in its condition?

In a previous NBA Summer League California Classic, the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 89-78. After this game, the Thunder won the first victory in the summer league, with a current record of 1 win and 1 loss; while the 76ers suffered two consecutive losses in the summer league.

In this game, the performance of 76ers' starting line star Justin Edwards can be said to be extremely disappointing. Edwards played 29 minutes and 58 seconds in the game, made 3 of 11 shots, 2 of 6 from outside the three-point line, and 3 of 4 free throws. He only scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. He also had 5 turnovers and 3 fouls, and the plus and negative values ​​were also low to the lowest level of -16 in the game. Edwards' efficiency on the offensive end is very poor. He has gotten a lot of opportunities to make phone calls, but it seems that his stability on the offensive end is seriously insufficient, and he has also made a lot of mistakes and wasted a lot of ball rights. Edwards' performance on the defensive end is actually very average, and he has not shown his due competitiveness in this regard. Overall, Edwards' performance in this game was very bleak, and the situation on the team was also very bad when he was on the court, and his abnormal performance also directly led to the team's defeat to a certain extent.

In fact, Edwards' performance in the previous team's loss to the Utah Jazz was also not ideal. Edwards made 5 of 13 shots, 1 of 3 from outside the three-point line and 2 of 4 free throws in the game time, and scored 13 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal. He also had 3 turnovers and 6 fouls, with a plus-minus value of -3. Edwards' offensive efficiency in both games was not ideal, and not only did he have poor offensive efficiency, but his performance on the defensive end and in turnover control was disappointing, and he did not show enough competitiveness at all. As a player who has been training in the NBA for a whole season, this performance is obviously very disappointing, and it can be said that it has not met everyone's expectations.

Edwards was born in December 2003 and is 21 years old, 201cm tall and weighs 92kg. He was the undraft in the NBA draft last year. The 76ers offered him a two-way contract after the draft. With his outstanding performance during last season, the 76ers turned him into regular trading in February this year and provided him with a standard contract. Previously, the 76ers also provided Edwards with a three-year appointment that locked his future. However, it seems that his performance during the summer league has declined significantly, which also makes us a little worried about his situation. In the following summer leagues, can Edwards adjust his form and perform at a higher level?
