might be off to a rough start as a whole, Jared McCain has taken the NBA world by storm. With his most recent outing, the former No. 16 pick managed to etch his name in the history books.
Over the past three weeks, McCain has become a focal point in Nick Nurse's rotation. He slowly saw his minutes increase with each passing game, eventually being promoted to the starting lineup. Even with all the constant change around him, the young guard has continued to thrive and be a major bright spot for the group.
Since his 34-point barrage against the Cleveland Cavaliers, McCain has remained in the starting lineup. There is some skepticism about him and Tyrese Maxey sharing the backcourt defensively, but they showed there's no problems on the other end of the floor. On Friday night, the Sixers were back on their home floor to take on the Brooklyn Nets in NBA Cup action. They managed to put an end to their five-game losing streak, in large part due to the play of their starting backcourt. Maxey finished with 26 points and five assists, while McCain erupted for a team-high 30 points.In the midst of helping his team put an end to their losing skid, McCain landed himself in some exclusive company. Through his first five starts, he is averaging 26.6 PPG and 5.
