What Was Recently Said:
There were a lot of quality contributors in this balanced showing, and McGrady’s low-maintenance production was certainly worth noting. He’s a long, athletic, high-motor post prospect with great instincts as a defender and rebounder. McGrady can finish around the basket and make moves out of the post, but doesn’t force the action and understands how to capitalize on putback opportunities. He alters shots, runs hard in transition, and simply makes plays on both ends of the floor. McGrady is already quite impactful, but should only continue to get better over the next calendar year.
What To Expect:
In all honesty, it’s surprising that more college coaches haven’t gotten involved with McGrady—especially given their general desire to obtain big men. He’s a tough, high-motor big man with a steady, low-maintenance identity. He moves very well for his size, which stands out on both ends of the floor. McGrady displays quality defensive instincts as an interior cog, showing an understanding of how to protect the paint and position himself to alter shots when defending PnR action. He plays with great energy on the glass and doesn’t shy away from contact around the basket. Offensively, he finishes around the basket, moves without the ball, and finds success through simply running the floor. McGrady utilizes his length to overwhelm opponents, but also possesses nice timing when altering shots. He currently sports a lone offer from Davidson Davie College, but it feels like more schools will certainly get involved over the coming months. McGrady should be a vital piece for Westover going into his senior season.
