    Mac had one of the top 10 highest vertical in the history of the combine, the fastest ¾ court sprint EVER in the history of the nba, MVP of the gleague and the the highest scorer, and none of these nba execs can see any of these indisputable data???

      Ladybird I honestly believe that the woke NBA doesn’t want a white guy from the southern Appalachians to come in and light up their so called superstars, and they see now that’s exactly what would happen. Hopefully some team’s front office will grow some balls and take a chance on him. A lot of people say he should go overseas, but with all the violence, and the state of the world today, I personally, and I’m sure most people who live here in Gate City would rather he stay here in the G League. He’s making a good living, and at least he’s safer here. It’s the NBA’s loss if they don’t sign him at some point. That’s just the father in me talking Mac is such a nice young man, I wouldn’t want to see get in a bad situation.

    (edit) 3:12 impossible shots like this really do speak to a truly gifted basketball player. His first step, picking up his dribble for a rim run starts just inside top of key, 2nd step just inside FT line, in traffic, and finishes with a right hand flip. Just the nerve to try a move like that is something. To pull it off is spectacular basketball.
    (edit 2) 6:38 for being right handed, his left also strong. Highly creative rim run, with an attack angle rarely seen for any player, let alone a guard. Left handed hook looked fluid and was shot with intent.

If he can keep from turning over the ball at the perimeter than he seems like a really good option. I really like his ability to break a double team and force the d to collapse and his active hands on D.

Additionally, he achieved a vertical leap of 43.5 inches, ranking as the seventh-highest in the history of the NBA Draft Combine1.
