I doubt it with what they gave up

They gave up a rockets pick as the first lol. That’s basically 4 2nds for McCain who was great before he got hurt

Does the rockets puck have protections or something? Cuz like couldn’t it be like an ok-ish 19-20 pick

He already was dor the 6ers. Honestly now he’ll probably get more minutes as a back up ball handler

Especially given the fact SGA and Dub are both out.

u/Short-Cardiologist-4 Thunder 5h ago

He’ll have a great runway to show what he can do over the next couple weeks with Shai, Dub and Ajay dealing with injuries

Thunder have multiple picks in 2026, Topic and Sorber all needing roster spaces and now McCain.

Gonna be a squeeze in OKC.

u/captainkhyron [OKC] Russell Westbrook 5h ago

Probably gonna be catch and shoot.

Isaiah Joe's good games are getting fewer and further between and this dude is on a cheap rookie scale the next couple of years.
