Siegel's Take -
Top 30 Scouting Reports
“McCants’ ability to score has
never been doubted, but it will much tougher for him making the transition
to the NBA because of his size. He’s not really a traditional two-guard, and
teams often would rather have scorers at the three, but pure shooters at the
two. Much was made about McCants’ attitude adjustment this past year, but
whatever problems he had in the past were generally overrated. For him to
ever develop into a big-time scorer in the NBA, he’ll need to work on
catching and shooting coming off curls, or shooting off the dribble. McCants
seems like he'd fit best on teams like Dallas, Phoenix, or Golden State now
who love to score the ball."
