C.J. McCollum posts 21 points, 6 boards, 5 dimes, 2 blocks for Trail Blazers
Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum scored 21 points (9-of-19 field goals, 2-of-2 free throws) with 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, 1 3-pointer, and 1 turnover in 30.6 minutes of a 113-99 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday.
McCollum made just 16-of-50 shots (32.0 percent) in the three games heading into the break, so the time off may have helped him get back on track. He was scorching before that, with 28-plus points in five of the previous six contests. The Trail Blazers play in Philadelphia against the 76ers on Saturday.
McCollum scored 40.7 FanDuel points in the win. He's averaging 32.0 FanDuel points through 57 games this season.
