Jared McCain has been balling out for the Oklahoma City Thunder lately, and it could make it a lot easier for them to shed some salary this summer. The Thunder have an impending CBA problem on their hands, and having a blossoming player on a rookie-scale contract makes it easier for them to trade away some of their more expensive players this offseason.
Though it’s only been a few weeks, McCain already looks like the type of player who could seriously help the Thunder in the long run, especially considering he’s still only 22 years old. His scoring and three-point shooting have been invaluable to the Thunder lately.
