This is who we were supposed to draft before Philly purposely drafted him before us but we got really lucky with Ajay…Welcome to your real home Jared
Great kid. Great shooter. Sixers loss dumb Morey.
76ers should've kept him for the season. They were looking to have a championship roster. I don't know how Sam Presti gets the vibes before everyone because Jared is a fit to team on all levels whether thats their culture, mentality and skill. It's these type of trades where people wonder how the frick did they let this man negotiate like this. Good on Oklahoma!
His personality fits In perfectly to what the Thunder want. We only take in humble players.
He paints his fingernails…. That's all that worries me
🧡🤍💙Welcome Jared!! We're happy to have you💙🤍🧡🏀⚡⚡⚡💙🤍🧡
The Thunder are going to make this kid into the player he was supposed to be.
Welcome Jared McCain!
Welcome Jared!!! Sorry for what’s happened but you’re in good hands and we can’t wait to see you ball!
OU fans are gonna love him! Jared McCain is just like every OU fan I know
76ers blew it. If Sam Presti wants your young player, maybe you should hold onto him. Daryl Morey is a "star hunting" loser.
I think we were gonna draft him but Topic was available
made sure to paint them nails 💅
I’m a Sixers fan coming here to say management did you dirty but everyone in Philly wishes you nothing but success in your new home
JMAC IN OKLAHOMA LETS GOOO
At least he didn’t get banished to hell bro got traded to a 1 seed team
Im sure it hurts but dude you came up .. We win over here .. thats our process its proven now .. Trust that
The Sixers lost another one man smh 💔
Let’s go JMac Welcome To The Thunder !!!
So excited we got you jmac! Hope we can give you a warm welcome
He is gonna be our Haliburton 2.0 😩😭
He's down so much for the city of Philly, gonna miss Bona in the vlogs
I remember I wanted the Thunder to draft him because he was the perfect fit. He has a Thunder type personality that I know Presti looks for. And he’s always had a “pro” ready game since HS. Never forcing things, smart plays, and getting to his spots despite not being very athletic. While also being an elite shooter.
He’s still a great fit rn, especially since we have the size to make up for his lack of size/defense. Only thing is we do have a surplus of guards. I wanted Cason to be able to expand his offense a bit. And McCain/Mitchell need more reps so idk how it’ll work. Someone might get left out.
You can tell that last question hurt him a but but I know he'll keep his head up. Let's get this work JMac!
Sixers fans here to say one thing: take good care of him
Sixers fan hear.Wishing J Mac all the success in OKC, he will shine. Sixers organization what they did to him is criminal.
Man as a Sixers fan I'm so upset abt this
Damn we definitely out a chip on broadies shoulder
I’m lowkey happy for bro cuz he fits their culture perfectly…Philly doesn’t know how to groom talent i just hope OKC doesn’t shelf him and gives him a chance
Feels good to be wanted. Just look at his smile
جيل يسلم جيل الي الفوز الكأس الذهبية لا للهزيم لا تراجع صباح الخير مساء الحب رجال الملعب الرعد فريق قوي الرعد ❤🎉💐🍔🌹💍🏀🥇🏟🏆☕️☕️🍱🥰
MORNING OKC BEAUTIFUL OKC GAME LOVE YOU GAME OKC MAN JOB FOR YOU FAMILY MAN ❤🎉🥰🍱☕️🏆🏟🥇🏀💍🌹🍔💐🤚
Call up Tyrese Haliburton, give you some pointers on how to handle being RANDOMLY traded by a team you loved 😂 I love the VJ Maxx duo but I don’t understand trading this dude RIGHT NOW! 2nd apron or not, I’m sure they could have done something similar else! As a knicks fan, hearing that they traded this guy to prioritize quinten grimes is kinda …… uhm….. huh?
Sixers decision makers have ruined this once proud organization. I've supported this team since 1977. This is far worse than people realize. JM just started to find his rhythm along with his wind. Morey is less than average and still living off the Rockets/Harden days. Fire Morey, give me Elton Brand.
