Small samples may make someone look more than they are in reality. he burned out for the Wizards after the all star break as well and shot about 30% the rest of the season, so its a small sample that can trend up or down depending. I don't consider his 29% shooting from 3 reliable. He's also had some really far off the target shots.
In the game-by-game chart, he started the season poorly (again in a micro-sample), and I think that skews his percentage downward.
