76ers-Thunder Trade: Jared McCain Already Thriving

The Philadelphia 76ers traded Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder, and the move is already paying dividends for OKC.

McCain is averaging 12.5 points per game with the Thunder, a significant increase from his 6.6 with Philadelphia. He is also shooting 48.5% from the field and 43.1% from three-point range.

The trade comes after McCain struggled to find consistent minutes in Philly due to injuries and falling out of the rotation. The immediate results in Oklahoma City make the deal look like a steal for the Thunder.
