76ers’ Jared McCain Says He’s on Pace for Training Camp After Meniscus Tear

He has not yet been cleared for full practice by team doctors.

Overview

  • Speaking Tuesday in Philadelphia, McCain said his plan is "for sure" to participate in training camp and he is progressing through on-court and live-work rehab.
  • The 76ers have not issued an official timetable, and projections for preseason or opening night availability remain contingent on medical clearance.
  • McCain tore the lateral meniscus in his left knee on Dec. 13 against Indiana and missed the remainder of his rookie season following surgery.
  • Before the injury, the 21-year-old averaged 15.3 points in 23 games, earned November rookie-of-the-month honors, and shot 38.3% from three.
  • His status update coincided with the unveiling of the newly named Xfinity Mobile Arena, where the Sixers and Flyers will play under a deal through the 2030-31 season.
