The game is worse than the other! How could the former Rockets forward pitcher play like this in the Asian Cup?

In the previous group match of the men's basketball team in the Asian Cup, Australia defeated Qatar 110-82. After this game, the Australian team's record increased to 3 wins and 0 losses, and successfully advanced with the record of first place in the group; while the highly-watched Qatar team's record dropped to 0 wins and 3 losses, and eventually the group was at the bottom and was eliminated.

In this game, although Australia won a big victory, the team's forward player Jack McVeigh performed quite well. McVeigh played 27 minutes and 19 seconds in the game, made 3 of 10 shots, 2 of 6 from outside the three-point line, and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 10 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal. There was also 1 foul, and the plus and negative value also reached +25. McVeigh actually got some opportunities on the offensive end, but his scoring ability and his shooting ability were not actually exerted, and he did not have a good effect on the offensive end. Not only that, his performance in other aspects is also very average, and he does not have much personal defensive ability. McVeigh did not show particularly outstanding personal abilities on both offense and defense, and his presence on the court was not high. As a player who has played in the NBA, this performance is obviously a bit average.

Since the start of the Asian Cup, McVeigh has averaged 25.3 minutes in the first three games, with averaging 13.7 points, 1.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.7 steals, 0.7 turnovers and 1.3 fouls, shooting percentage of 37.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 43.5%, free throw percentage of 100%, and averaging plus-negative value of +21.7. McVeigh only showed good personal abilities in the first game against the South Korean team in these three games, and he also got a lot of points. However, in the next two games, his offensive efficiency was 6 of 21 shots, and his three-point shooting percentage was only 5 of 16 shots. His effect on the court was really bad. As an excellent scorer and pitcher, this performance is simply outrageously poor.

McVie has always been an excellent scorer and pitcher in the NBL field, and therefore, he received attention from NBA team Houston Rockets last season and received a two-way contract. Although he didn't play much in the NBA field last season, his performance in the NBA Development League field also had certain highlights, and his performance in the previous NBA summer league was also remarkable. McVeigh also completed the signing from the NBL team Cairns Taipan Snake and returned to the NBL arena. With McVeigh’s experience and resume, he should have performed better. I don’t know if he can show stronger competitiveness and help the Australian team to reach the championship in the next time.
