  9. Clearly a level above at that level in only two games back which is great to see. His passing will be rewarded way more with NBA guys on the end of them too

  12. Hard to overemphasize just how much better his 3 point shot and finishing is compared to summer league. Absolute stud in the making.

    He looks absolutely massive out there for a true PG, but having him, SGA and Ajay as big PGs is what will allow us to play McCain with no issues at the 2. I have been pleasantly surprised at Jmac’s size and defense. People were making it sound like the guy was super tiny. He’s only 2.5 inches shorter than SGA barefoot and his high shoulders actually give him an average NBA standing reach for his size. Just a short wingspan

  13. Topic passing & vision is fantastic and he’s solid at slashing to the rim. If he’s able to find a consistent 3 ball like he showed tonight… watch out NBA!

  14. Those passes. Damn.

    3 point shot mechanics still look inconsistent, but we’re used to that right as thunder fans lol.

  16. Super excited for him but he’s still only 20 and effectively a rookie, plus coming off a knee surgery and chemo. If and when they call him up he’s still going to have to earn his place in a very deep rotation, especially defensively. Hard to imagine him getting many non-garbage time minutes in the near future. Patience my friends… patience.

  18. What surprised me more other than his passing is barnhizer my god he’s a gem too with topic

  20. He looks ready for the NBA. I imagine we will see him with the Thunder not long after all-star break.
