Kawhi gets the least amount of game touches from the big 4 and ranks lower than guys like Royce O’Neale, Buddy Hield, John Collins and Caris LeVert. Definitely not ideal and part of the reason I believe he hasn’t got into a great rhythm this season.

I really think this is our way of managing his load.
That’s what’ll happen when you got The System on your team🤷♂️ and it sucks because it’ll be hard for him ot get out of this slump and into a rhythm if he doesn’t get the ball more.
As others have commented I think he’s actively resting lol, there’s been a few games where he isn’t really doing much and I think that’s by design. That’s a huge reason for the harden trade.
Tbh I feel like Kawhi is one of the superstars who lives doing just all the little things to win and doesn’t really care about scoring all too much. Unless it’s needed loll
If you want kawhi to touch it more, PG has to give the rock up some.
They need to do a better job finding him. Multiple possessions a game where he’s open or has a favorable matchup. They also need to get him cutting to the midrange of the court more.
There’s no way Royce Oneale has more touches, all he does is catch and shoot 3’s averaging 7 shots a game off the bench. This is load management at its finest lol.
Need more shots for Russ tbh
PG has been killin’ it so far, so I imagine the team is fine to ride the hot hand for now while they figure out the dynamics of adding Harden.
tbh Kawhi hasn’t really been good
It’s sad to see honestly. I hate load amangement but if your body is brittle you got no choice.
