Collin Sexton and Darius Garland want to be the next Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum. But they’ll do it with a twist.
Garland, whose game is most reminiscent of Lillard’s due to his penchant for hitting long threes, will be playing shooting guard rather than point guard. Or, at least, that’s how Sexton sees it.
At Media Day, when asked by reporters on a potential move to shooting guard with Garland on the team, Sexton replied that he’s “not moving anywhere.”
That would mean that Sexton will continue to play point guard, although his ability to slither into the creases of defenses and knock down midrange shots is awfully similar to McCollum.
