McCollum recently spoke with Draymond Green on the Golden State Warriors veteran’s podcast and CJ provided some insight on what it’s like to mentor a guy like Zion. McCollum revealed that he eased into it early on: “I didn’t force it,” McCollum said. “I didn’t want to be the old head that preaches because I know what that looks like. I was more like, show first, then I tell.” McCollum then described how he let his own actions do the talking. He didn’t want to be all bark and no bite, so he made sure to lead by example. Williamson responded well to this approach and the two have since become very close.
