Waiters' personal NBA SG rankings make McCollum laugh

USA Today Sports

Dion Waiters sure thinks highly of himself.

During a recent appearance on FS1's "The Herd," Waiters ranked himself the NBA's fourth-best shooting guard - behind James Harden (who recently made the transition to point guard), Klay Thompson, and Dwyane Wade, and one spot ahead of All-Star DeMar DeRozan.

Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum didn't make the cut, later taking to Twitter to have a chuckle over his omission.

2016-17 statistics
