The Philadelphia 76ers celebrated a thrilling victory over the Charlotte Hornets, clinching a 110-104 win at the Spectrum Center.

Nevertheless, amidst these hurdles, 76ers guard Jared McCain continues to engage and entertain his fans beyond the basketball court.
Following the game, McCain, who boasts a remarkable 4.3 million followers on TikTok, shared a playful video where he lip-synced to Drake’s catchy track “Rich Baby Daddy.” In this entertaining clip, the guard turned the camera toward his teammate, Kyle Lowry, capturing his bewildered expression.

Coach Nick Nurse Highlights McCain’s Impressive Game
The 76ers selected McCain with the 16th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. He played his first NBA game on October 23, 2024, although the team faced a tough 124–109 defeat against the Milwaukee Bucks. However, in a recent thrilling showdown with the Hornets, McCain shined brightly with 17 points, added two assists, and secured one rebound while coming off the bench. In the post-game interview, Sixers coach Nick Nurse praised McCain, highlighting his impressive performance and the energy he brought to the court.
“Very good off the bench performance for him. You come in and you need some scoring off the bench. It was a tough decision – we were struggling on the offensive end. I was really considering a lot of the fourth of putting him back in there down the stretch just to give us a little more space for Tyrese and Paul [George] to operate because they were closing in pretty hard off some of the other guys.” Nick Nurse said (Via Keith Pompey).
McCain consistently showcased his impressive skills on the court. Recently, he engaged with fans, providing an articulate response about his aspirations for the Rookie of the Year award. Following this latest victory, the 76ers hold a record of five wins and fourteen losses.
Lakers Owner Jeanie Buss Recalls Horrifying Moment When Another NBA Owner Inappropriately Groped Her (VIDEO)
Jeanie Buss recently had a wide-ranging interview on “In Depth with Graham Bensinger” about how an NBA owner grabbed her butt during her first NBA Board of governors meeting.
The Los Angeles Lakers owner was left in complete shock that she couldn’t even react the way she had hoped.
“As we were waiting, taking a break from the meeting and everybody’s in line for the buffet for lunch during the lunch break, somebody grabs my ass,” Buss said on the show. “I turn around and I was so shocked. But it was like, again — if I didn’t have the confidence that my dad put in me, that was a moment where I wanted to shrink and to be nothing, that I would have, you know, gotten sick and said, ‘I gotta go.’ Do I really belong here? You know, I’m just really not one of the group, like I’m been singled out.
“It made me really self-conscious.”
This isn’t the first time she has spoken out about the incident, as she revealed it in her 2010 book Laker Girl. The alleged harassment actually happened in 1995, according to the Los Angeles Times.
She explained to Besinger how she wasn’t going to let the incident slide.
