Sheldon McClellan: Scores 20 points in 32 minutes Thursday

Wizards coach Scott Brooks has given McClellan high praise in the early days of training camp, and the undrafted rookie seemed to back up those claims with an excellent outing Thursday night, finishing second to only Kelly Oubre in scoring. McClellan’s contract isn’t fully guaranteed for the 2016-17 season, but with the Wizards in need of additional backcourt depth, the 23-year-old may have an early edge over Jarell Eddie and Danuel House for one of the team’s final roster spots.
