Presti obviously sees a lot of potential in McCain in this pickup and matches out timeline perfectly. A very aggressive but sharp addition to the team.

  1. It honestly wasn’t a very aggressive trade at all and calling the pick traded a first is technically true but misleading. It’s going to be a really dogshit first that is pretty much equal to a good second round, any first that isn’t at least top 15 is usually not very good, and even then the only really good firsts are usually top 5. Once you get past the first couple picks the odds of getting a really solid player isn’t super high, someone like Mccain is almost always going to be better than a #25 pick or whatever the Rockets 2026 pick turns into.

  2. People aren’t going to like it, but this trade may have some relationship to the Klutch announcement…

  3. They traded a top 20 protected 1st to Philly for Jerami Grant in 2016. It conveyed in 2020.

  4. Ok ok ok. This fact makes my heart hurt a little less. My number one team is now OKC. Where Jared goes, I go! 💙🧡
