Jared McCain was in Chicago a year ago, “stressed” about the draft combine.
Last night, he was the Sixers’ onstage rep during a chaotic draft lottery, when brief confusion turned into a grin and a nod.
“Oh, we got this.”

Good morning! I was inside the secret drawing room for last night’s draft lottery, where the Sixers landed the No. 3 pick.
Come for in-room rep Ned Cohen’s lucky charms and connection to the number three. Stay for how the room reacted during Kevin Neghandi’s flub.

Asked Tyrese Maxey if he knew during the game when he was getting closer to a triple-double: "I didn’t know I was close until they were like, 'They took one of your rebounds away.' I was like, 'Well, dang, how many I got?' They were like, 'Well, eight now. I said, 'Oh eight? I need two more, then'"
