McCollum went for 16 points (6-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists and three rebounds over 38 minutes in Wednesday’s 102-81 Game 2 loss to the Clippers.

The third-year guard logged heavy minutes for the second straight game, but had his share of struggles from the field against the Clippers’ solid two-guard defense. McCollum has now shot just 32 percent (9-for-28) from the field over the first two playoff games against the Clippers, and 25 percent (3-for-12) from three-point range. His two-game average of 12.5 points falls woefully short of his 20.8 season figure, and is one of the main reasons why the Blazers find themselves in a 2-0 hole.
