Jared McCain in their win tonight: 30 pts on 11/20 shooting (6-11 from 3, 2/3 FTs), 6 rebs, 4 asts and 2 stls. First rookie to have seven straight 20pt or more game since Victor Wembanyama.

1. Maxey and McCain doing there absolute best to make this team watchable/likable

2. What a pick. Dude has balls.

3. Crazy that the sixers got another great guard outside of the lottery

4. So since last season.

5. so since last season? lol

6. He doesn’t even look like a rookie. He plays with so much poise, already looks like a vet.

7. Gen Z Curry

   League ain’t ready 

8. “Jared McCain can’t be our most consistent player” – Paul George

   “Bet” – Jared McCain

9. Close enough welcome back Steph Curry

10. Ah McCain, you’ve done it again

11. Dude was balling out of his mind. Rookie Of The Year easily.

12. Amazing McCain. bet this kid would climb the ranks

13. Fucking dumbass we’re trying to capture the Flagg idiot

14. In 10 years every NBA star will be a tik tok celebrity. It will be known as the Jared McCain effect.

15. > since Victor Wembanyama.

    Damn, it’s been year.

16. Rookie of the year and not even close.

17. Could have had a few more assists too if eric Gordon wasn’t utter dogshit

18. Sixers got so incredibly lucky. With everything going on with that team he’s the one good thing. He’s been awesome.

19. Sactown represent!!

20. Trade Embiid and PG

    Build around Maxey + McCain

21. okay he’s genuinely insanely good

22. First rookie since last year lmao. It’s pretty special

23. I feel like every time he gets his feet set it’s going in. And he’s really good at getting his feet set.

24. This dude is awesome

25. I think he might win rookie of the year 

26. So first rookie since last year? What is this headline

27. I couldn’t believe it when this guy fell out of the top 5 in a draft as weak as that. He was a killer at Duke and he was one of the best players period last March.

    Classic case of scouts over thinking a sure thing.

28. “Since Victor Wembanyama” made me laugh out loud. That was *last season.* What kind of statistic is that lmao.

29. Haven’t watched a lot of sixers but how have mccain and Maxey look together? Seems like that’s going to be their future.

30. I was hoping McCain would fall to the Magic. When he fell down the board I was optimistic because I didn’t think 6ers would take him since they have Maxey. But MF 6ers took him anyway.

31. I discovered today that McCain has a YouTube channel he’s been uploading to consistently for the past few years. He seems like a solid dude.

32. I’m two days into college

33. lol the title makes it sound like the past rookie to do this did it a lot longer ago, not last season

34. What a steal of a pick. Him and Maxey both.

35. Suddenly 76ers have a new young duo in Maxey and McCain

36. Since victor aka last year lol

37. Dudes vlogs are pretty fun to watch too

38. My personal [victory lap](https://np.reddit.com/r/CollegeBasketball/comments/1bmu8ty/game_thread_12_james_madison_4_duke_0515_pm_et/kweg8er/) but I think by the end of last year’s college season his stock was already rising heavily, surprised him and Knecht weren’t even lottery picks.

39. Embiid got replaced by a TikToker overnight

40. > Since Victor Wembayama

    You mean, this season.

41. The fact that he isn’t nicknamed “Buick” is SUCH a missed opportunity

42. Oohhh I’m the 76ers, I’m really good at drafting in the mid to late first round. Fuck you lmao I love this dude

43. this guy is legit legit

44. Since Wemby? So last year? Tf is that lmao

45. This guy is the real deal, holy shit. Congrats sixers

46. It’s a different era since Wembanyama was playing so not as impressive.

47. This guy and Amen are saving my fantasy season with so many injuries

48. the only reason sixers fans aren’t measuring themselves for the noose. dalton knecht is cool, how about a guy 3 years younger

49. first rookie since the guy last year is wild.

    still, good shit

50. is this an AI headline? First since Wemby? Seriously?
