The Sacramento-born point guard joins George in becoming one of the Sixers’ newest signings this summer. However, McCain’s NBA journey is just beginning.
Two years ago, McCain was a five-star recruit out of California. He joined Duke for the 2023-24 NCAA season. As a freshman, McCain was an immediate starter.
THE Philadelphia 76ers on SI The show is available on streaming platforms Spotify, Apple and Amazon.
Last year, McCain played in 36 games. Averaging 31 minutes on the court, McCain scored 14 points per game, along with five rebounds and two assists. He shot 41 percent from three-point range, making him one of the most efficient three-point shooters in the NBA.
After one season at Duke, McCain entered the NBA draft, landing with the Sixers with the 16th overall pick.
While McCain finds himself in a tough spot as a rookie on a team that hopes to win a championship, he has the opportunity to join a locker room with an All-Star trio of Joel Embiid, Maxey and George. It seems McCain is already building chemistry with one of his most notable teammates as they appeared on a podcast episode together.
The episode will be available on Monday, August 26.
