76ers-Thunder Trade Already Favors Thunder

The Jared McCain trade between the Philadelphia 76ers and Oklahoma City Thunder is showing early signs of being heavily one-sided in favor of the Thunder.

The Philadelphia 76ers appear to be struggling to find the right role for Jared McCain, the young player acquired in their recent trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Early indications suggest the Thunder may have gotten the better end of this exchange.

McCain, who has yet to find consistent playing time or a defined role in Philadelphia's rotation, has been underutilized according to team insiders. The 76ers' inability to integrate him effectively into their system is raising questions about the initial evaluation of his skills and fit.
