Clippers 108, Hawks 107: Welcome to the C.J. Williams Show

No words.

Just buckets.

C.J. Williams capped a phenomenal game with the first game-winner of his NBA career. The rookie wing, playing on the 40th day of his 45-day two-way contract, appearing in his 27th game, and notching his 12th start, played 37 minutes and contributed 15 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and 4 steals. He shot a hyper-efficient 5-7 from the field and 3-4 from deep, including the stone-cold game-winner in the video above.

I wrote in today’s game preview that the Clippers’ best hope for a win, missing five of their top players, was for “a supernova offensive explosion from Lou Williams and a strong inside performance from DeAndre Jordan, surrounded by enough random offensive production and defensive competence by the rest of the squad to come out on top.
