Jared McCain has quickly emerged as a standout player for the 76ers, showcasing his potential during the early weeks of the 2024-2025 NBA season. After receiving his first start due to Tyrese Maxey's injury, McCain delivered an impressive performance against the Cavaliers, scoring a career-high 34 points, including six three-pointers, while also contributing ten assists for a double-double. His ability to step up in a challenging situation has made it difficult for the coaching staff to consider sending him to the G League, as he continues to elevate his game and solidify his role on the team. With averages of 23 points, two rebounds, and two assists in his recent games, McCain is proving to be a valuable asset for the 76ers.
