Also his playmaking is surprising too, from his scouting reports it seemed like he cannot playmake at all, but he is okay and definitely shows promise in that regard

One of his better games. Would like to see more playmaking from him, seems like he forces his shot a lot. In summer league it makes sense, he is figuring out what works and what doesn’t against NBA caliber competition, but will need to adjust during the regular season.

Such a beautiful jump shot, I’m hype

Very promising passing chops

This was one of his better games, but he scored 21 points on 5/16 shooting. He’s 17/64 (26.6%) from the field through 5 Summer League games. His playmaking is good and he may have a future on our team as a PG, especially if he can shore up his defense and remain a good rebounder for his size. But he is extremely unathletic and slow out there and can barely get separation on any of his shot attempts. He doesn’t look like he can join the second unit right now, and his NBA ceiling looks low due to his non-athleticism. Will be happy to be wrong going forward.

He looks like he needs time in the G League to me. I don’t want him buried on the bench learning nothing.

can we just stop dowtin to playmake and let this kid do some pg job? idc we win this summer league game or not, we ain’t gonna play dowtin over maxey or lowry when it matters but mccain’s gonna get his minutes

He will have a smaller window to get his shot off and it will be alot harder for him to get to the rim vs actual NBA players due to his average athleticism.
That said he looks like he knows how to play which is an underrated skill. Assuming his shot is as advertised I think he could be a valuable player for us maybe even this year
