Overview
- Philadelphia assigned McCain to the Delaware Blue Coats on Saturday, marking his second G League stint of the season after a November assignment.
- In his latest Blue Coats game, McCain posted 15 points on 5-of-18 shooting with zero assists and six turnovers in a loss to the Noblesville Boom.
- Across 30 NBA appearances this season, he is averaging 6.3 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 17.3 minutes.
- His trajectory shifted after a meniscus injury ended his rookie campaign in December 2024 and a preseason setback delayed this season’s debut until November.
- Rookie VJ Edgecombe’s rise has tightened the backcourt rotation, and rival teams have reportedly inquired about McCain’s availability ahead of the Feb. 5 trade deadline, per Forbes’ Evan Sidery.
