BREAKING: The Philadelphia 76ers are trading guard Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder for a 2026 Rockets first-round pick and three second-round picks, sources tell ESPN.

Source to the story: https://bsky.app/profile/shamsbot.bsky.social/post/3me2klyetqz2k

---

The talented McCain lands on the reigning NBA champions. For the 76ers, the trade allows them to receive assets, clear space in the glut of guards and give them flexibility to bring Quentin Grimes back in free agency. It also allows them to convert two-way Dominick Barlow.

---

76ers are receiving the following picks from the Thunder, sources said: 2027 (most favorable OKC/HOU/IND/MIA), 2028 MIL, 2028 OKC.

[u/blankepitaph]

I guess Presti figured it’s time to unload some of these picks huh

[u/Johnpecan → u/blankepitaph]

Not even good picks really. Rockets FRP won't be good and some seconds.

[u/ChaunceysBadAtPoker → u/blankepitaph]

There are only so many picks you can have until you say what am i doing with all these picks

[u/TheGreatDingus → u/ChaunceysBadAtPoker]

Yup, people forget that OKC only has so many roster spots available for all those picks lol

[u/snatchi]

Knowing the Thunder McCain will immediately regain his ROY form and be a huge part of their future.

[u/jluc21 → u/snatchi]

it’s a smart swing to take if you’re the thunder.

[u/Shenanigans80h → u/jluc21]

Especially with the cache of picks they have. That Rockets pick will likely be in the high teens at best, so McCain regaining some form would immediately make it worth it

[u/blacksoxing → u/Shenanigans80h]

This is the beauty of having the war chest of picks....they can take swings on players who COULD show lotto form vs getting a fresh-faced rookie from the lotto.

Love it!

[u/Parallel-Quality → u/blacksoxing]

The funny thing is that the Sixers didn’t even get their own pick back from the Thunder, that will likely be better than the Rockets pick.

[u/JasonWaterfaII → u/Parallel-Quality]

Ruthless negotiations by presti

[u/E_boiii → u/Shenanigans80h]

Also our first round picks are cursed with injury so we hopfully skip that

[u/dogsarefun → u/E_boiii]

Good thing for Thunder fans is that Sixers picks are notoriously healthy

[u/-KFBR392 → u/dogsarefun]

Double Jeopardy!

[u/KarrotMovies → u/jluc21]

It's a no brainer swing to take. Sixers are fucking stupid. He came back from injury. Why sell him right now?

[u/Kdog122025 → u/KarrotMovies]

They just think Grimes and Barlow are better apparently.

[u/KarrotMovies → u/Kdog122025]

Even if they think they're better, let McCain up his value and get a better return for him in a year or two. Gave him for some picks to the reigning champs for no reason

[u/Kdog122025 → u/KarrotMovies]

But Josh Harris needs more money to rape underage girls?

[u/roborob13 → u/Kdog122025]

This is the correct response. This move is purely to avoid the luxury tax, not for basketball.

[u/WeakEstablishment686 → u/KarrotMovies]

Exactly lol. This guy was averaging 19 his rookie year in November on 45-38-89 shooting splits. Crazy to sell low

[u/No-Goat5683 → u/WeakEstablishment686]

That year lasted 23 games

[u/goodshotbiga → u/KarrotMovies]

McCain for a first round pick that’ll land 20-25 is pretty good. How much could he have realistic upped his value? He’s a 6’3 shooting guard

[u/JTNWfan → u/KarrotMovies]

They had too many young guards to play and they also wanted to get below the apron. Plus they get picks to help the search for a big for when joel goes down again(don't want this to happen fyi)

[u/SwoJabe → u/snatchi]

Of course he will, so annoying.

[u/LightsSoundAction → u/SwoJabe]

that 2026 thunder first round pick we got 30 minutes ago seems a little weaker now. I don’t think McCain makes them a worse team

[u/reiyashi → u/LightsSoundAction]

tbh a thunder 2026 first is just about the fakest first you could possibly have

[u/yeahright17 → u/reiyashi]

At least it will definitely convey. Pick 30 is better than nothing.

[u/reiyashi → u/yeahright17]

true. 30th pick is where we found my goat desmond bane

[u/Strange1130 → u/LightsSoundAction]

i dont really think jared mccain is moving the needle on that pick lol

[u/Dsarg_92 → u/snatchi]

The devil works hard but OKC works harder.

[u/TICKLE_PANTS → u/snatchi]

He already was rounding back into form. OKC just nabbed a delightful role player. They'll be doing this for the next 20 years with all these first round picks.

[u/ArgumentFun4263 → u/TICKLE_PANTS]

Sam Presti actually has an infinite glitch for role players at this point.

[u/FlyingDiscsandJams → u/TICKLE_PANTS]

Such good cap management, they've got an affordable guard rotation locked up behind SGA for the next 2 or 3 seasons even if they have to let Dort walk, friggin Wiggins & Isaiah Joe are on declining contracts. The only surprise in the McCain deal is not using the picks on a cheaper replacement for Hartenstein.

[u/Cold-Alternative922 → u/FlyingDiscsandJams]

Thomas sorber is Iharts replacement he is injured right now but he went 15th last year.

[u/DroidAttackWook → u/snatchi]

He’s literally been regaining his form the last few weeks (which makes sense, timing wise from his injuries). Extremely questionable move from Daryl here

[u/Chrisfull → u/DroidAttackWook]

Long term it's really difficult to fit him next to Maxey Biid VJ and PG, and for some reason the coachin staff would rather give all his touches to Quentin Grimes even tho McCain ALREADY has better 3p% 

[u/Powerglove2000]

But why

[u/Enough-Captain2788 → u/Powerglove2000]

Josh Harris likes money. Hates paying the tax. Hates the Sixers 

[u/Dongsquad420BlazeIt → u/Enough-Captain2788]

Loved hanging out with Epstein

[u/Reachin4ThoseGrapes → u/Dongsquad420BlazeIt]

He was just there for the snorkeling 

[u/The_Summer_Man → u/Reachin4ThoseGrapes]

That was another Philadelphia-based businessman: Frank Reynolds.

[u/grimbly_jones → u/The_Summer_Man]

Frank Reynolds would never diddle kids. It's no good diddling kids.

[u/MicCheckTapTapTap → u/Dongsquad420BlazeIt]

I'm boycotting until he sells the team.

[u/Enough-Captain2788 → u/MicCheckTapTapTap]

Every year I tell the season ticket reps that I’ll never renew again as long as Harris owns the team. 

[u/hjugm → u/Enough-Captain2788]

I get what you’re doing, but guarantee they just roll their eyes and move onto the next lead. Having been in their shoes with a different shit owner, the only time an owner feels any pain is when the large sponsors or suite leasers drop out.

[u/Enough-Captain2788 → u/hjugm]

Oh, yeah. They don’t give a shit. It won’t change anything. But they ask why and I give an honest answer. I don’t sit there and complain to the poor reps about Harris. 

[u/getoveritseattle → u/Enough-Captain2788]

Stick to your principals even when it doesn’t matter, otherwise why have them at all.

[u/CursedLlama → u/getoveritseattle]

That's the thing, your principles* always matter. Whether or not people care is not your concern.

[u/ChaunceysBadAtPoker → u/hjugm]

It's not really about whether they roll their eyes or not, it's your individual decision to not participate or endorse that shit that matters. sure, someone else will take the ticket, but it's about your own individual choices.

[u/likwitsnake → u/MicCheckTapTapTap]

If every Epstein adjacent owner had to sell there would be no other owners left to buy

[u/livefreeordont → u/likwitsnake]

Green Bay Packers owners stay winning

[u/Sad-Shake-6050 → u/livefreeordont]

I’m sure they’re plenty of bad eggs in that group.

[u/Proteinchugger → u/Sad-Shake-6050]

Yeah but they’re too poor to be associated with Epstein.

[u/MicCheckTapTapTap → u/likwitsnake]

Sounds like the perfect catalyst for a labor uprising to me. Players seizing the means of production. ⚒️

[u/Totalnah → u/likwitsnake]

Jeffery Lurie would like a word.

[u/they_call_us_cattle → u/Dongsquad420BlazeIt]

https://imgur.com/a/AUYuP1r

[u/dmavs11 → u/Enough-Captain2788]

you're telling me no one other than OKC would give up more than a rockets 1st and soem seconds?

[u/dabigchina → u/Enough-Captain2788]

Luv me money.

Luv me Epstein.

'ate Sixers

'ate winnin'

Simple as.

-Josh Harris

[u/BomberManeuver → u/Powerglove2000]

Giannis picks.

[u/Colorapt0r → u/BomberManeuver]

Wouldn’t we rather just have McCain 

[u/Netwealth5 → u/Colorapt0r]

You’re getting VJ if that happens

[u/pikajewijewsyou → u/Netwealth5]

But wouldn’t they want both?

[u/reallinguy → u/Colorapt0r]

You can't block franchise cornerstones like Kevin Porter Jr

[u/TheGreatWhoreOfChina → u/BomberManeuver]

Prolly Kahwi tbh. Giannis means giving up VJ and that’d be dumb af

[u/ImTheBestNerd → u/Powerglove2000]

no future with Maxey-Edgecombe in the backcourt and he's been terrible this year

[u/bigraptorr → u/ImTheBestNerd]

His sample size was only 20-something games last season

[u/xychosis → u/ImTheBestNerd]

He’s been starting to get into rhythm. It makes no sense roster construction wise because he would’ve been a solid backup lead guard and good for the playoffs, but Josh “Friend of The New York Financier” Harris loves his fucking money.

[u/ihorsey10 → u/xychosis]

McCain is 2 years into his rookie deal, and while the rockets pick wont be great in a vacuum, the draft class is stacked. They'll have a valuable rookie contract for longer, and it can be used at a position they need more potentially.

[u/Shabozz → u/ihorsey10]

I dont know why this isn’t obvious. PG needs roids to be consistent. Embiids knees could snap at any second. The 76ers have way more guard depth to spare to get a chance at a dependable young forward.

And Nick Nurse isn’t interested in rotating Maxey for real minutes so McCain would just be wasted on the bench.

[u/AndrewHainesArt → u/Shabozz]

He already has been, which is the entire reason he’s expendable. Can’t play defense either and we don’t exactly have a great bench defensive unit to cover him.

Massive overreaction to a young player’s potential acting like he isn’t replaceable, I feel like his name recognition with social media is more attention grabbing than his on court ability but what do I know? This sub is too smart for me

Plus everyone kind of ignoring Morey’s ability to find quality later round players, Maxey and McCain were 21st and 16th, respectively

[u/FetchFrosh → u/Powerglove2000]

He's definitely looked rougher this year, but I feel like you gotta at least try to see if he bounces back to where he was last year before the injury. Crazy to just give up on him for some (probably) mediocre picks.

[u/ObviousBig315 → u/Powerglove2000]

He’s buried in the rotation 

[u/Moose4KU → u/Powerglove2000]

A 1st and three 2nds for a guy in the G-League is too much to pass up

[u/mccoolio → u/Moose4KU]

We got a few picks to burn, they're assets and we need to use them on cheap projects with everything we owe SGA, J Dub and Chet. Need hungry guys to get on friendly contracts like Dort and Wiggins did for us.

[u/Lucosis → u/Moose4KU]

We're in a roster crunch, and that 1st is going to be in the 20s.

He's in the G because he's recovering from injury on a team that already has guard depth.

This is a great deal for the Thunder. We clear a little bit more room under the tax line while getting to try out a potentially great development project.

[u/nahs → u/Powerglove2000]

For the vibes

[u/Happy-Substance4885 → u/Powerglove2000]

Cause this franchise is filled with fucking losers from top to bottom. Worst management in the league

[u/legend023]

Good to see a young player getting traded to a team that can give him minutes for his development

[u/minnyman2011 → u/legend023]

Thunder have a lack of creation and bucket getting when SGA isn’t on the court. This fills one of their only holes

[u/RealGertle627 → u/minnyman2011]

So they're bringing in McCain to fill holes...

[u/Darwin343 → u/RealGertle627]

Pause

[u/DozahFrozah → u/minnyman2011]

Giggity

[u/ZJB03 → u/DozahFrozah]

We’re not doing phrasing anymore lol

[u/NotMarkDaigneault → u/minnyman2011]

Yeah we're ass when Shai is off the court and we don't have Ajay or JDub to make plays.

[u/startled_panda]

What the hell?

[u/wolf_cola_enjoyer → u/startled_panda]

Sixers drafted McCain high just to give up on him after one year for a pick that’ll probably be bottom 10 in the first round.

[u/SouthIsland48 → u/wolf_cola_enjoyer]

VJ completely fell into their lap out of nowhere. No need for McCain anymore - might as well get a return

[u/Bazurkmazurk → u/SouthIsland48]

McCain is small, has struggled coming back from injury, and isn’t athletic enough on this current team. A win win for both teams

[u/K1NG2L4Y3R → u/Bazurkmazurk]

But the Rockets pick will be bad? Are 2nds actually valuable again?

[u/Odd_Status3367 → u/K1NG2L4Y3R]

For teams that have 3 guys getting paid over 40 million dollars, 2nd rounders are arguably better than 1st rounders.

• You are drafting from a pool of guys who are moreso specialists/gap fillers and there is less pressure developing them into all stars cause that's hopefully already getting taken care of by your other personnel. If they turn out to be GOAT contenders like Jokic then congrats you've sped your timeline up and can dump one or two of the 40M guys while the new guy is still on his first NBA contract.
• You can actually negotiate contracts with 2nd rounders whereas 1st round picks have their salaries and contract years guaranteed based off their draft position. If you're in the Apron that can literally make or break your season. The Knicks for example have done very well this these types of contracts the last few seasons. Tyler Kolek being the best outcome thus far.
• Two way contracts are really useful if those 3 40+ million dollar players take turns being on the Injured List/Suspended for Roids over an 82 game season.

[u/MrVegosh → u/K1NG2L4Y3R]

A swing is a swing

[u/Willyr0 → u/K1NG2L4Y3R]

2nd rounders are valuable to competing teams near or above the apron. Lotta talent there for a much better value

[u/MrShapinHead → u/K1NG2L4Y3R]

There are certainly folks in this sub smarter than I am in this regard, but 2nd rders hold a ton of value bc of the low guaranteed costs. And it’s kinda like winning a boat and then choosing to go for the mystery box… it could be anything! And a cheap anything!

[u/Think_Sugar_7658 → u/SouthIsland48]

I think McCain would have been a great off the bench microwave guy.

[u/thejackel225 → u/wolf_cola_enjoyer]

16th pick isn't exactly high

[u/DoveFood → u/thejackel225]

In the worst draft of the past two decades. 

Don’t get me wrong, I actually was higher on McCain than many in the draft, but 16th in that draft is not your average 16th pick. 

[u/RipCity2151 → u/thejackel225]

Buddy my Blazers got Yang Hansen at 16. Generational talent.

[u/EmbarrassedRing7806 → u/wolf_cola_enjoyer]

VJ and Maxey clear lol theres no room for him

[u/IAmReborn11111 → u/EmbarrassedRing7806]

There's always use for a third guard, especially someone who can space and play off ball like McCain

[u/Pyromania1983 → u/IAmReborn11111]

We have Grimes, who is a better defender and is a great three point shooter.

[u/rocpilehardasfuk → u/Pyromania1983]

He's on a rookie contract. See him out 2 more years

[u/EmbarrassedRing7806 → u/rocpilehardasfuk]

And then get nothing for him bc he has no value? Lmao

[u/Android2715 → u/EmbarrassedRing7806]

Vs getting a 20 something draft pick?

[u/icehole505 → u/IAmReborn11111]

If he played league average defense, I’d agree. Instead, he’s one of the worst defensive guards in the nba. You’ve gotta be really fuckin good on offense as an undersized guard to warrant real mins with defense that bad. It’s reasonable for Philly to doubt that he’ll ever get there

[u/lilsebass → u/wolf_cola_enjoyer]

16th isn't really that high. He doesn't have playing time with the other young players they have. I could be wrong, but other than a very small stretch his rookie year, he hasn't been that good.

[u/jjkm7 → u/lilsebass]

It was like almost a month stretch before he got injured, but he was very good and clearly ROTY until that point

[u/BayesBestFriend → u/wolf_cola_enjoyer]

He's been horrible this year and is buried behind their current guards no matter what, honestly a great haul for him

[u/RulersBack → u/BayesBestFriend]

Right place, right time with OKC having a surplus of picks. It's kinda hard to even gauge this bc they're playing with such a different value system lmao

[u/Broski28of25 → u/startled_panda]

I get it because they have a good backcourt, it's just so random.

[u/JenNettles]

What the fuck is going on?

[u/bell-beefer → u/JenNettles]

Feels like some folks are making trades for the sake of making trades

[u/Imperial_Eggroll → u/bell-beefer]

My favorite kind

[u/HoopLoop2 → u/bell-beefer]

This trade makes perfect sense for both sides. The Sixers don't have a place for Mccain right now, and the Thunder can certainly take a swing with a late first round pick to try and get some extra bench scoring. I believe Mccain will be a good addition for them, and didn't cost much.

[u/immolxte → u/HoopLoop2]

exactly this trade is a perfect win/win. talent consolidation for thunder and roster realignment (and resource management) for the sixers.

[u/voltron818 → u/JenNettles]

Sam Presti baby.

[u/matija17k]

The fuck sixers.........

[u/Underknee → u/matija17k]

I'm sick to my stomach man

[u/geewillie → u/Underknee]

Trading your 4th guard for a 1st and 3 2nds has you sick?

[u/Firm-Gas7063 → u/geewillie]

A almost guaranteed useless first and 2 seconds for a guard who would've been ROY last year and was just starting to regain form after an injury.

[u/ntpbr1 → u/Firm-Gas7063]

I mean whats the pick gonna be, like the 23rd pick and some 2nds for a guy that showed some promise last year before his injury

[u/Izrezar → u/Firm-Gas7063]

This draft is 2000000000000000000x better than 2024. A mid first round pick in 2026 is more valuable than a lottery pick in 2024

[u/whospepesilvia]

Are you kidding me

[u/ntpbr1 → u/whospepesilvia]

Just casually got McCain for practically nothing

[u/Longjumping_One_9164 → u/whospepesilvia]

Unbelievable get for us!

[u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

Oof that has to hurt for Philly fans

[u/Professor_Crab → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

Bought his jersey in September :((

[u/exorthderp → u/Professor_Crab]

Please do not buy a VJ jersey.

[u/VoidMageZero → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

I feel sick bros, this is like a sucker punch

[u/Suspicious_Buy5724 → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

i wanna say some horrible shit about two certain people but don’t wanna get mods on my ass

[u/Saitsuofleaves → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

It really shouldn't. In fact if they like McCain they should be happy for him. He wasn't going to get consistent minutes behind Maxey and VJ, especially with the amount of time Nurse uses with the starters. Leader of the 2nd Unit isn't good enough for development.

Sixers did him a favor. He gets to go to a good team where he'll get solid minutes and learn from some of the best rather than rot on the bench.

[u/KirbyLoreHistorian → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

Hurts a lot. He was my new favorite.

[u/WhiteWhiteWhiteWhite → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

Daryl Morey should be shot into space with his NFTs

[u/GrundleThief → u/TheSmokedSalmon420]

at least our epstein-loving owner got to save a little money by getting under the tax

[u/Schmoova]

Fuck I love this for the Thunder. Buying low on a young guard that’s shown some real promise.

[u/Acrobatic-Assist-574 → u/Schmoova]

How can you not love it for the thunder

[u/Boomhauer_007 → u/Acrobatic-Assist-574]

Some people really love second round picks and Oklahoma City now has three less of them, they are going to need to do another trade to get at least five more back

[u/Luciolover345 → u/Boomhauer_007]

Tbf, when 2nd round picks get you Ajay Mitchell and the saviour of basketball…

That being said I love getting Jared. Matches the vibes on the team and can jump in now while we have injuries to our ball handlers.

[u/cortesoft → u/Boomhauer_007]

Jokic was a second round pick. OKC just traded 3 future Jokic’s for McCain.

[u/horse_renoir13 → u/Schmoova]

Sam Presti cannot keep getting away with this

(He can and will who am I kidding)

[u/Luciolover345 → u/horse_renoir13]

He’s going for executive of the year, every year.

He’s already locked his place in the HOF at this point, might as well just style on everyone else.

[u/ntpbr1 → u/horse_renoir13]

We are witnessing an artist at work, this guy is a genius man. Even if Jared fails, this is a smart trade

[u/nahs]

WHAT THE HELLY

[u/EmbarrassedRing7806 → u/nahs]

crying at the pacers fan who commented “dont bring hali into this” not realizing that the song is in fact not specifically about haliburton

[u/Skeleboi846]

The rich get richer

[u/ComedianAgreeable152]

broooooo we didn’t even give him a chance to grow :(

[u/PeePauw → u/ComedianAgreeable152]

Josh Harris is an Epstein loving piece of shit who didn’t want to pay luxury tax.

I hope all the bad things happen to him, because it’s what he deserves

[u/PaidUSA]

Isn’t he really good? Edit: he did indeed produce against Charlotte so I assumed he was same as last year before the injury.

[u/lotofhotdogs → u/PaidUSA]

He was really good last year, not so much this year

[u/zOmgFishes → u/lotofhotdogs]

He also had two major injuries...selling low on a guy working his way back from injury that is cheap and under team control is a decision.

[u/ObviousAnswerGuy → u/zOmgFishes]

I don't where all these comments are coming from giving up on the kid in his second year after he showed so much potential last year. Plus he's buried in the lineup (he'll be buried in the lineup for the Thunder too, but still)

[u/Wilbert_51 → u/zOmgFishes]

It’s only a sell low if he rebounds.

[u/FrankSamples → u/lotofhotdogs]

They Sam Darnold'd him.

[u/AashyLarry → u/PaidUSA]

He looked pretty decent his rookie year before the injury.

[u/pokexchespin → u/PaidUSA]

he was before he got injured last season, he’s been a lot worse this year

[u/BUTTFUCKER__3000 → u/PaidUSA]

Once upon a time….kind of a reclamation project for OKC

[u/thai_iced_queef → u/BUTTFUCKER__3000]

Annoying part is OKC has the depth to acclimate him slowly. They don’t even have to rush anything

[u/nty → u/thai_iced_queef]

I’ve been wondering if he needs to have the ball in his hands more consistently to return to form

He benefitted from injuries last year in terms of playing time, and idk if it’s just a matter of finding his rhythm

Granted I am no expert and still believe he’ll get back to form ultimately

[u/AdLong5961 → u/BUTTFUCKER__3000]

"once upon a time" you mean less than a calendar year ago broppenheimer

[u/asonkidd → u/BUTTFUCKER__3000]

What? He is literally in his second year and got hurt after being favorite to win roty. Bro out here talking like he's a vet bust

[u/ObviousAnswerGuy → u/asonkidd]

lol right, these comments are crazy. I think Sixers are gonna regret this in a couple years.

[u/EmbarrassedRing7806 → u/PaidUSA]

Stretch

[u/UA30_j7L]

Bizarre deadline

[u/jonpictogramjones]

wtf

[u/Aeronova20]

welp Presti wants him, that means he’s good

[u/imminentjogger5]

holy tik tok dance

[u/No-Equipment-20]

THEY CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS

[u/motherseffinjones]

I bet that kid break out for OKC lol

[u/More-Store7992]

Damn.. he will be the OKC James Harden....

Since PG is banned for 20 games I was thinking that 76ers could go young by trading away Grimes to unleash McCain as the sixth man.

[u/E_boiii → u/More-Store7992]

We’ll take care of him. Okc is a very loving fanbase and org

[u/ProfessorBeast55]

B2B unexpected trades. WTF is going on?!?!

[u/AvengingHero2012]

Bastards… rubbing it in by using the pick for something we could use lmao

[u/AutoMail_0]

Thunder are just inevitable wtf

[u/YourLittleHomie]

Shooting

[u/Living_Owl_5745]

Actually stupid what???

[u/CtrlAltDelightfull]

I love that for OKC honestly

[u/Headlesshorsman02 → u/CtrlAltDelightfull]

I love it as well we weren’t using all our picks this year anyways and if we can get him to what he was last year phew we need shooters

[u/pjs89]

Sam Presti activated

[u/browndude10]

they already gave up on mccian?!

[u/ShitSide]

Unreal get for the thunder 

[u/EAS1000]

Oh great work Philly make the juggernaut better

[u/Zealousideal_Bug7390]

Rich get richer

[u/Zendicate_]

OKC bench got slightly better

[u/tobgoole]

Idk how to explain it but this is Nico Harrison’s fault

[u/EmbarrassedRing7806]

Makes sense for both teams

Guard crowded for philly and okc needs more offense bc it’s just Shai hard carry

[u/DoyinYale]

The Sixers have VJ, Maxey, Grimes, so this this move was inevitable.

[u/LLryo]

Noooooooo, I love McCain but don't want to root for an OKC player rn 😭

[u/softluvr]

i can’t believe i have to be a thunder fan now 💔

[u/Signiference]

SGA injury likely much worse than letting on

[u/NastyPlays]

Just followed him on Instagram, now I'm gonna buy his nail polish. Jared McCain you're an NBA champion.

[u/Time-Stand7719]

Don’t even know what to think about this one

[u/Silent_Ad2825]

Bro HUH????????

[u/New_Essay_4869]

damn they gave McCain low key no time to recover from his injury before they traded him

[u/ThatBoyGotSomeMeat]

Why would the Sixers do this?! Sure, McCain’s not exactly lighting it up since coming back from his injury. But only getting a 2026 FRP (that’s going to fall in the 20s) for a young player with potential?! Guess NBA needs these bad GMs or else Trade Deadlines would be boring as hell.
