The Trail Blazers secured their fifth win of the season on Saturday thanks to a monstrous performance from CJ McCollum. The former Lehigh standout connected on six of his 11 three-pointers and notched 37 points in Portland’s decisive victory over the Sacramento Kings.
After the game, the Trail Blazers put together a video highlighting McCollum’s decimation of the Kings’ defense.
Last night, Blazer’s Edge Managing Editor Dave Deckard put McCollum’s performance into context.
CJ McCollum is scoring so effortlessly right now, his highlight reel resembles ballet. Close or deep, off one leg or two, with the ball or catch-and-shoot, everything’s in rhythm and LOUD.
