WATCH: DJ Wagner Sinks Game-Winning 3-Pointer One Day After McDonald's All-American Game

It's been a good week of basketball for 5-star Kentucky signee DJ Wagner. 

Just one day following his Co-MVP performance in the McDonald's All-American Game in Houston — where he totaled 19 points, three assists, two rebounds and two steals — the combo guard connected on a game-winning 3-pointer to propel Camden (N.J.) past Marietta Wheeler (Ga.) in the first round of The Throne National Championship in Atlanta:

Camden was without fellow future Kentucky Wildcat and McDonald's All-American Aaron Bradshaw, who sat out, as did Wheeler's Isaiah Collier. 

"The main thing I know is that we all want to win," Wagner said about he and his fellow incoming Cats on Monday. "From having conversations with them and talking about next year, we all want to win. That's our main goal, just winning as much as we can."

Wagner and Co. will be in action once again on Thursday night in the second round of the tournament, taking on the Queens Royals (N.Y.). The game will air on FS1 at 9 p.m. EST.
