It has been a disappointing season for McDaniels, but he turned in a strong line in this game. One of the few bright spots of McDaniels' season is that his defensive prowess is finally translating into defensive stats, and he was able to set a new season-high for steals in this game. He also set a season-high for rebounds and had one of his best offensive performances of the year. Hopefully this can help turn things around for McDaniels, but managers shouldn't be rushing to the waiver wire.
