The Philadelphia 76ers secured a hard-fought 117-95 victory against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday at Wells Fargo Center, but the win was overshadowed by a concerning incident involving their first-round pick, Jared McCain.
The young guard had to be rushed to the hospital for a possible concussion evaluation after a tough collision during the game. ESPN’s Tim Bontemps addressed McCain’s situation with Philadelphia head coach Nick Nurse. Nurse shared his concern for McCain’s well-being.
“Nick Nurse said McCain is on his way to the hospital to get checked out and hopes that he’s ok—said he’d never seen anything quite like McCain’s reaction on the court after the fall,” the report read.
The incident occurred in the fourth quarter when McCain collided with Nets defender Ziaire Williams. McCain landed hard on the court, and things took a worrying turn soon after.
McCain appeared to hit his head and back sharply on the floor and visibly struggled to catch his breath. The 76ers’ training staff quickly rushed to his aid, helping him off the court.
Social Media Erupts With Messages Of Hope For Jared McCain After Injury Setback
A concussion is one of the last things any rookie hopes to experience in their first season in the NBA, but unfortunately, Philadelphia 76ers’ first-round pick Jared McCain found himself in that very situation.
For a rookie just getting his start in the NBA, an injury like this is not only physically challenging but also mentally tough to navigate. Fans were quick to express their support for McCain, sharing messages of hope and prayers across social media.
Before the incident, McCain, who once opened up about the hate he receives for his TikTok videos, added 9 points and 7 rebounds while playing for 23 minutes. The hope is for now that the young player can make a swift recovery and return to the court soon.
