His offensive ability is really average. Should the Clippers continue to let him enter the starting lineup?

In the previous NBA regular season, the Philadelphia 76ers, playing at home, completed a desperate counterattack in the final quarter and narrowly defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 110-108. After this game, the 76ers, who have won two of the last three games, have improved their record to 8-5, and their ranking has risen to sixth in the Western Conference; while the Clippers, who have suffered two consecutive losses, have dropped to 4-10, and continue to rank fourth from the bottom in the Western Conference.

In this game, the Clippers' starting backcourt guard Kris Dunn actually performed well. Dunn played 27 minutes and 6 seconds, making 3 of 5 shots and 1 of 2 from beyond the three-point line. He scored 7 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 steal. He also had 1 turnover and 5 fouls, with a plus-minus of -8. At least in this game, Dunn's performance on the offensive end was relatively stable. He also scored a certain number of points. He hit a three-pointer and he didn't waste too many opportunities. In addition, Dunn also played a certain role in passing and organizing offense, and his performance on the defensive end is also worthy of recognition. Overall, Dunn has shown his own characteristics. However, everyone can understand that his ability on the offensive end is indeed relatively limited, and it seems unrealistic to expect him to play a greater role on the court.

In the NBA regular season last season, Dunn played a total of 74 times in 82 games, averaging 24.1 minutes per game. He averaged 6.4 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.7 steals, and 0.4 blocks per game. He also had 1 turnover and 2.7 fouls. He shot 43.9% from the field, 33.5% from the three-point range, and 68.2% from the free throw line. In the playoffs, Dunn played a total of 7 times, averaging 21.9 minutes per game. He averaged 6.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.6 blocks per game. He also had 0.1 turnovers and 2.6 fouls. He shot 38.6% from the field and 35.7% from the three-point range. Since the start of this season, Dunn has averaged 25.7 minutes per game in the first 14 games, averaging 7.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.5 steals, and 0.3 blocks per game. He also has 1.4 turnovers and 2.7 fouls. His shooting percentage is 47.5%, 36.4% from three-point range, and 72.2% from free throws.

Judging from Dunn's performance throughout the season, he can still basically complete the tasks required of him by the team. He can score a certain amount of points and he can play a role on the defensive end. It seems that the combination of him and James Harden is also quite tacit. The only problem is that Dunn's offensive ability is indeed too lacking, and he himself lacks enough self-confidence. Moreover, Dunn's performance also affected the Clippers' overall performance on the offensive end. I don’t know how the Clippers will adjust this position next.
