CJ McCollum

CJ McCollum followed up his game-winning shot against the Bucks on Wednesday with another strong performance Friday, posting 17 points (7-of-14 FGs), six rebounds, four assists, and three three-pointers to lead the Wizards to a 119-99 victory over the Nets. The 34-year-old shooting guard was a dominant +18 in 31 minutes during the 20-point rout.

McCollum continues playing at a high level this season despite Washington's 9-24 record. With the Wizards struggling and McCollum remaining productive, it's fair to wonder if a contender would be interested in acquiring the veteran guard ahead of next month's trade deadline.

CJ McCollum saved his best for last in Wednesday’s win over the Bucks, draining a go-ahead pull-up jumper with just over a second remaining to secure the 114-113 victory. He finished the night with 18 points (7-of-15 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, four assists, and three three-pointers.

The veteran guard had struggled in the fourth quarter prior to the final possession, hitting just one of his previous four shots, but he delivered when it mattered most. While he isn't posting the explosive scoring numbers of his prime, McCollum remains a steady hand in the Wizards' offense and a reliable source of nightly production for fantasy managers.

Fantasy Impact

CJ McCollum was a stabilizing force in Friday's win over the Raptors, finishing with 21 points on 8-of-16 shooting. He went a perfect 2-of-2 from the free-throw line and added three rebounds, four assists, and three three-pointers to his stat line.

Fantasy Impact

The veteran guard has been a rare source of consistency for Washington, now eclipsing the 20-point mark in five of his last eight contests. While his role is currently secure, McCollum is a prime candidate to be moved ahead of the February trade deadline. A trade to a contender could actually stabilize his fantasy value for the playoffs, eliminating the risk of late-season rest days that often plague veterans on rebuilding squads like the Wizards.
