Really liked what I saw out of JMac in his debut. He played very limited minutes but flashed his off the dribble scoring ability, connective passing, and shooting ability. He was also very engaged on defense which might be the most encouraging part.
There was definitely some first game jitters to start but was a big reason OKC almost came back early in the 4th quarter.
Personally I think if he played more and even finished the game OKC could have won tonight but still very encouraging stuff nonetheless.

He was alright. Struggled to get the inbounds in twice and like some sixer fans had pointed out his handle hasn’t quite recovered all the way since the hand surgery. Was pretty easy for Sheppard to heat up the ball when McCain had it. Thought JM was opportunistic and ready though
He was alright. Definitely looked like a guy who played his first game with a new team. Missed some open looks, couple turnovers, wrong spot on the court, etc. I think we will see what he’s capable of once he adapts to the play style a little more.
He’s just not that good the injury last year really killed him he’s a unathletic combo guard that’s a horrible defender, thunder will regret this trade
