Jared McCain has spent the early portion of the season attempting to rediscover the player who was in Rookie of the Year award conversations one year ago. After spending six games shaking off the rust, he did just that against the Miami Heat today.
His season-high 15 points were one of the most notable takeaways from the Philadelphia 76ers’ 127-117 loss to the Miami Heat at Xfinity Mobile Arena on Sunday afternoon. McCain’s minimal resurgence, Andre Drummond’s continued productivity and Miami’s superior execution stood out in Philadelphia’s seventh loss of the season.
