In the last edition of our “Best of the Season” series, we documented the Portland Trail Blazers’ CJ McCollum and his scintillating performance against the Chicago Bulls on Jan. 31. McCollum scored 50 points in that game in just 29 minutes and 16 seconds of court time.
That feat was historic.
CJ McCollum = 50 points (29 minutes, 16 seconds) Only the second player in the NBA’s shot-clock era to score at least 50 points in a game in less than 30 minutes (Klay Thompson, 60 points, 29:03; 12/5/16) @EliasSports pic.
