Jared McCain is ALREADY the Sixers best back up point guard

Jared McCain is looking like he's the best option at back up PG for the 76ers headed into the season. What do you think Nick Nurse will do?

I been singing Jared’s praises since we drafted him this kid is going to be the X factor this season backcourt of him and Maxey in the future will be downright scary ….

I think a good projection for McCain this year is comparable to Maxey in his rookie season. 10ppg off the bench, spark plug type. Not 6 MOY per se but definitely a minor contributor off the bench in his first year. He may be capable of more, but a coach who historically favors veterans will probably still turn to them in a lot of scenarios but I think McCain is already good enough where you can't ignore him completely either.

I like Kyle as the backup but in very limited minutes and McCain fill in the rest of the back up minutes. Kyle is going to get others the ball and involved which you can see him directing traffic on offense and defense. Very valuable

I really wasn't so sure about Jared in terms in what we had in him. Is he just a 3 point shooter? or more? After the Celtics game he showed he can be a legit sixth man alongside Maxey. Embiid was right about him being the best guy in camp. He's tough

Really like your comments on Yabusele…he is hungry to prove himself.

[jamesmendoza]

Damn bro i was about to literally sleep from my country where it’s 1 in the morning and you just uploaded a new video. Now i gotta watch and hit the like

[kalaiolele]

Yabusele's lookin' like THE off season steal of the 2024!

[americantarmacker]

Nick nurse won’t let McCain be the back up point guard not enough experience I believe Jackson will be the back up point guard he got the big time experience with Denver Jackson was good for Denver in the playoffs he won a lot of them games alone Jackson is good I’ve watched him alot wait for the season to start you will see

[C-DAVID]

Besides George & Gordon & Yabusele (Yabusele is a PF/Small Ball Center so Yabusele isn't a Wing) i am concerned if Sixers have enough shooting from the Wings out of C Martin/Oubre/Council/K.Martin

[Robby]

Don't underestimate Reggie Jackson.

[colbyreed]

I’m a Celtics fan that respects the Sixers and I agree with you man. The preseason is to show who sucks as a washed player and who shows bright potential like Kyle Lowry and Reggie Jackson are washed, but they were trying. That’s the thing washed players can try, but even still suck, so technically preseason is not worthless

[MikeSportsVibez]

He's definitely talented and showing why the 76ers drafted him, but it really depends on Nick Nurse. Will Nick Nurse give him consistent playing time? We shall 👀

[greenteablackcoffee]

I hoped Jeff would look more aggressive in preseason.

[alexkieffer]

That handles post the sixers posted with maxey doing that between legs hesi, gave me shades of younger Harden man

[C-DAVID]

Could Sixers waive Lowry or Jackson to open up 2 roster spots or keep both & sign Center for Depth with the last 15th spot bc Bona ain't ready & Yabusele is only a small ball Center & i agree about McCain & Council

[krobinson]

I don't know if that person was saying not trying at all but I would think they wouldn't approach it like a real game especially with being older. You already know who and what they are and as long as it didn't decline from a few months ago, what are they trying to prove. Of course McCain has something to prove. The need to see what they have and what he can do. You already know from these vets.

[smokingnjokingsportztv]

Once again reason for kyle lowry should get ANY minutes over Mccain, eric gordon OR reggie jackson

[jessew]

I don’t think that Reggie is giving lackadaisical effort, he is just extremely streaky with his scoring. He’s either hitting everything (no diddy) or he is missing everything.. there’s no “in between” with him

[King_Stanton]

Maybe some teams will make cuts and we pick up another player, have you seen the little Japanese PG on Memphis 🤯 this dude can pass! I think we need a backup Center for the games Drummond starts.

[King_Stanton]

I agree about Council, I think Justin Edwards will be a way better player. Im surprised we haven’t seen Davis Jones! Is he injured?
