Portland Trail Blazers guard CJ McCollum isn’t going anywhere after signing a contract extension to keep him in Portland until 2024. Sports Illustrated’s Jeremy Woo gave the extension an A-, liking what McCollum brings to the Blazers’ roster:
McCollum has evolved into a truly dynamic scorer, developing into a threat on and off the ball and a strong partner for Lillard. He’s been tied in trade rumors in the past, but as it stands, he’s a pretty tough cover, and someone as comfortable leading a bench unit as he is complementing Lillard in crunch time.
