2024 Fantasy Outlook
Coming off a strong freshman season at Duke, McCain was selected by the 76ers with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. His three-point shot wasn't great during Summer League action, shooting 25.5 percent across eight appearances, but he shot 41.4 percent on 5.8 attempts per game in college. McCain's size raises concerns about his defensive upside at the NBA level, but the effort is constant, showing glimpses of being a lock-down perimeter defender a la Patrick Beverley. As a rookie, it'll be hard for McCain to find the court. The 76ers re-signed Kyle Lowry to serve as the primary backup to Tyrese Maxey, and they added Reggie Jackson and Eric Gordon to provide backcourt depth, not to mention the additions of Paul George, Caleb Martin, Andre Drummond and Guerschon Yabusele in the frontcourt. Philly is in a win-now mode, and it's unclear if McCain can contribute right away. With so many veterans ahead of him, McCain doesn't need to be drafted in standard leagues. However, given his all-around skill set, McCain is a name to watch if injuries pile up in Philadelphia. Read Past Outlooks

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

McCain is one-and-done after joining the Blue Devils as a five-star recruit, a 2023 McDonald's All-American and California Mr. Basketball. McCain also won gold while representing the United States at the FIBA Americas Under-18 Championship. A viral content creator with nearly three million followers on TikTok, McCain averaged 14.3 points on 46.2% shooting, 5.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals in 36 starts this season. McCain's pedigree carried over to two 30-point performances in the NCAA Tournament, as well as seven games with at least four made 3s this season - flashes of serious next-level scoring ability. Scoring is the appeal, as McCain is a two-way competitor but shouldn't be considered as a sure-fire asset on the defensive end in the NBA. Offensively, he ranked in the 81st percentile for off-the-dribble shooting efficiency, while also knocking down 42.1% of 160 catch-and-shoot 3s on the year. McCain can put the ball on the deck as well, converting 62.5% of his shots at the rim while ranking in the 37th percentile for frequency among guards nationwide. Being an attentive defender and possessing a sturdy frame work in his favor as well, but McCain's size nonetheless shifts pressure to his offense translating. McCain almost never turned the ball over (453rd-lowest TO rate in the nation), finishing with a modest but commendable 68/47 assist-to-turnover ratio. His decision-making as a freshman shows combo-guard upside, but expect McCain to settle in as a shooter off the bench in his first NBA season. Lonnie Walker IV is a more explosive athlete (McCain only had one dunk at Duke), but an offensively-oriented guard like Walker - or the ongoing twilight years of Eric Gordon - represent the vision of McCain's floor. His ability to shoot off screens will provide offensive utility, while a swing factor to monitor will be his handle.

Puts up 15 points in victory
GPhiladelphia 76ers
July 8, 2024
McCain notched 15 points (6-15 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals across 27 minutes in Monday's 102-92 win over the Thunder in the Salt Lake City Summer League.
ANALYSIS
McCain had a decent outing in the club's first Summer League game as he stuffed the stat sheet. The 20-year-old did struggle from three; however, he shot 41.4 percent from deep at Duke, so one Summer League game should not be a concern. McCain spent one season playing college hoops, during which he averaged 14.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals.

GFree Agent
June 15, 2024
McCain could be an option for the Lakers with their first-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, according to Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times.
ANALYSIS
The Lakers could use some depth in their backcourt, especially with D'Angelo Russell set to test the open market, and McCain could be an intriguing addition to the roster due to his shooting ability and the floor spacing he'd bring on offense. McCain averaged 14.3 points per game while shooting 41.4 percent from three-point range for Duke in the 2023-24 season.
