John Salmons awful again in loss to Hornets
John Salmons - G/F - Sacramento Kings
Jan. 21, 2013 - 4:20 PM ET

John Salmons scored five points in 29 minutes on Monday, shooting 1-of-4 from the field with four assists and one steal.

He's still getting heavy minutes, but he's now averaging just 5.0 points in his past three games. According to Synergy Sports data, Salmons accounts for a heavy portion of the Kings' isolation and spot-up opportunities this season, but he's noticeably absent in pick-and-rolls, cuts, and in transition -- there are better options on most waiver wires.
