MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – A familiar refrain from coaches to players regarding who starts and who sits is this: Worry about who finishes the game, not who starts it.
Kevin McKay has come off the bench exclusively throughout his career with the Central Michigan men’s basketball team. But it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep the 6-foot-5 sophomore off the floor.
McKay scored a career-high 33 points and grabbed a season-high 10 rebounds in leading the Chippewas to an 80-72 win on Tuesday at Northern Illinois. That performance came three days after he posted his first double-double (14 points, 10 rebounds) of the season at Akron.
