It’s been a week-and-a-half since the Portland Trail Blazers officially parted ways with CJ McCollum in that culture-shifting seven-player deal. Though, it hasn’t taken the longtime star guard much time to share his experiences, journeying through the first trade of his career. On the latest edition of the Pull Up podcast, McCollum pondered over some of those emotions before looking ahead to his future.
McCollum, who also recently penned a thoughtful farewell tribute to Portland on The Players Tribune, spoke of his appreciation for the Blazers’ front office, and how they allowed him some input on his destination.
