Twitter Gold: Jared McCain settles down with the Thunder

After a fantastic rookie season with the Philadelphia 76ers that was unfortunately cut short by a knee injury, former Blue Devil Jared McCain has had another issue this season with a hand injury. And since Philly’s backcourt is pretty solid, they decided to trade the promising second-year player to Oklahoma City…and that may have been short-sighted.

In his first two games, McCain had 7 points and 3 rebounds against the LA Clippers and in his second, against Phoenix, he had 12 points and 4 rebounds. Here are some highlights from the game against the Suns.

He’s always been a smart player with a beautiful jumper and with teammates like Chet Holmgren, Jalyn Williams and Shea Gilgeous-Alexander, and he could have a long, prosperous run in OKC.

Incidentally, Phoenix now has three former Blue Devils: Grayson Allen, Mark Williams and Khaman Malauch.

Allen did not play because he has an apparent knee injury. Luckily it doesn’t seem too serious.

Williams and Maluach both had 6 points while Williams had a single board and Maluach had 6.
