Fourth Quarter
The fourth didn’t bring much excitement. Neither team’s starters played a single minute, as the white flag was waved by Chicago. The Moda Center was not pleased, as many wanted to see McCollum reach 60 points. (This off the heels of last night’s first-ever 60-point triple-double by Houston’s James Harden.)
Noah Vonleh, Moe Harkless, Jake Layman, Antonio Blakeney, and Quincy Pondexter all played in the fourth quarter, a rare sight nowadays.
The game was over after the first quarter.
McCollum finished with 50 points in 29 minutes. LIllard finished with 13, and Nurkić 12. Vonleh scored six points in seven minutes; he went 2-of-4 from three.
