Mac Mcclung Just Scored the Most Points in a Windy City Bulls Game Ever
mac mcclung erupted for a franchise-record 54 points, adding 10 assists and 7 rebounds for the Windy City Bulls in a 127-126 overtime loss to the College Park Skyhawks Tuesday night ET. He shot 18-of-34 from the field and 9-of-18 from three while logging 43 minutes, with 33 points in the first half. The output stands as a career high for the guard and the highest-scoring game in the G League this season.
Mac Mcclung’s record night
The Windy City Bulls guard finished with career highs in field goals made and three-pointers made, topping the franchise single-game scoring mark with 54 points. He opened the night with a scorching start from deep, piling up 33 first-half points and multiple triples off the bounce before shifting to a more downhill attack later in the game. McClung’s stat line included 18-of-34 shooting, 9-of-18 from beyond the arc, five made free throws on five attempts, seven rebounds, 10 assists and one block while appearing for 43 minutes in the 127-126 overtime loss.
The performance also ranks among the highest individual scoring nights in G League history and is the top scoring performance in the league this season, elevating the game’s significance beyond a single franchise record.
Impact on season and resume
The outburst bumped mac mcclung to a league-leading scoring mark in the season snapshot provided for his appearances, and it underlined why he has been repeatedly singled out across G League seasons. He has averaged 20-plus points in multiple seasons, earned the league MVP award in 2024 and won a G League championship in 2023. This night reinforced his high-efficiency profile: the available figures show he has shot above 50 percent from the field over the span noted and has done so while limiting trips to the free-throw line.
Beyond the single-game numbers, the 54-point night added to a season where McClung has produced multiple 30-plus scoring efforts and sustained heavy offensive usage for the Windy City Bulls, pushing longstanding franchise marks and league-leading totals for scoring.
What comes next for mac mcclung
The central question after this historic outing is whether the performance accelerates mac mcclung’s path back to consistent NBA minutes. He has been close before: the guard secured an NBA deal to start a recent season but was waived after three games with the Indiana Pacers. For now, the record-setting game strengthens his case and sets the stage for teams to reassess his immediate NBA viability as the G League season continues.
