Nickeil Alexander-Walker News: Logs team-high 26 points in loss
Alexander-Walker ended Tuesday's 141-116 loss to the Lakers with 26 points (10-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists over 33 minutes.
Alexander-Walker has found himself in a plum position as Atlanta's starting off-guard, but the newly acquired CJ McCollum is quickly getting familiar with the offense, scoring 25 points during Tuesday's loss. A switch to McCollum in the backcourt may be imminent, and the eventual move will hurt Alexander-Walker and Dyson Daniels. The production of both players warrants close attention, as one of them could be removed from the first unit in the impending scenario.
