Jared McCain already making dancing Tik Tok video’s for Sixers via #Sixers

**Jared McCain: The 76ers' New Star and TikTok Sensation**

The Philadelphia 76ers have a new rising star in Jared McCain, who was drafted 16th overall in the 2024 NBA Draft. But McCain isn't just making headlines for his basketball skills—he's also a TikTok sensation with 2.8 million followers. Known for his dance videos and trending challenges with friends and teammates, McCain has been a social media star since his freshman year of high school, with his posts regularly earning millions of views.

On draft night, the Sixers wasted no time tapping into McCain's social media prowess, having him recreate one of his popular dance videos while donning a Sixers cap. Fans are excited to see if McCain will continue his TikTok career as he steps onto the NBA stage.

Despite concerns that his social media activities might distract from his game, McCain proved his doubters wrong at Duke, where he continued to post videos with his new teammates. Duke head coach Jon Scheyer praised McCain's ability to balance both his basketball and social media commitments, calling him one of the few who can excel at both.

Among McCain's most popular TikToks are moments from the locker room, post-victory celebrations, and even his singing. He also partnered with Sally Hansen, sharing his passion for nail polish—a hobby he picked up during the pandemic. Despite some online backlash, McCain remains unfazed, attributing his on-court success to his self-expression.

McCain's authenticity shines through in everything he does. He told Complex Magazine, "I’m always just going to be myself. The hate is funny because it’s usually grown men just hating on a kid." As he joins the 76ers, fans are eagerly waiting to see if McCain can get teammate Joel Embiid to join him in a TikTok dance.

I want 3 made threes for every tik tok video. He does that he can play the fool as much as he likes . If he makes threes teams will think twice about doubling Embiid on the catch and that is all that matters
