@PeteNokos_@No3sports I can't believe that a coach who's team is in contention for a conference title and a playoff berth would do this to his current team.
@ilovetohavefunn@ClutchPoints This kid plays with heart!! I don't understand not utilizing a sitter of his capabilities!! He will sell jersey's just give him an honest opportunity @NBA@ESPNNBA
Mac McClung's career journey has been wild.
On Oct 27, he signed a multiyear contract for the first time in his career. He'd been mostly on 2-way and camp deals since 2021, before the Pacers' contract.
With Indiana, Mac averaged 6.3 PPG over 3 games.
But just a little over a week later, the Pacers waived him after signing Monté Morris.
This isn't even the first time McClung has been waived this season.
On October 17, he signed with the Bulls, only to be waived 3 hours later.
And since going undrafted in 2021, he's spent time with the Lakers, Bulls, Sixers, Magic, and Pacers' organizations - mostly in the G-League.
Despite playing a total of 9 NBA games in his career, McClung has shined elsewhere:
⭐️ Only player in history to win Dunk Contest 3 years in a row
⭐️ G-League Rookie of the Year (2022)
⭐️ G-League champ (2023)
⭐️ G-League MVP (2024)
⭐️ G-League scoring champ (2024)
⭐️ 2x All-NBA G-League First Team
Now, the journey continues for Mac McClung.
He's continued to grind wherever he's at. And we'll see where the road takes him next.
