Chris McCullough denies game-fixing claims after Jones Cup final

Strong Group import Chris McCullough vehemently denied allegations of game-fixing after facing criticism for his performance in the William Jones Cup title game.

Despite being named the Jones Cup MVP, McCullough scored a tournament-low 12 points on 4-of-16 shooting in their overtime victory against Chinese Taipei-A, a stark contrast to his earlier average of 21.1 points.

He addressed the accusations on X, calling them 'ridiculous' and emphasizing that an off-game does not equate to fixing matches.

McCullough stated his commitment to representing the flag and acknowledged that players can have bad games.

Fellow import Tajuan Agee stepped up in the championship game, leading Strong Group with 21 points and 9 rebounds to secure the title.
