I still believe that Mac will be back for his junior year and that it is his best option. I nelieve he will come back also.

I hope Mac will be back for his junior year because he is a good and exciting player, but that is my selfish interest. For his sake I hope he and his family make the decision they think is best for him. At any rate it has been a pleasure watching him and I will be rooting for him wherever he is next year and beyond.

I think we need to plan for Mac not coming back. Maybe I’ve conditioned myself for bad news lately, but I think we are underestimating his ego/belief in his abilities and desire to play in the league. At least Ewing needs to be recruiting like he’s not coming back and then we can always be pleasantly surprised. The college game is in a shambles right now and there’s not much tethering talent to a school. What if universities are still E-Learning in the fall? What’s the compelling reason to return? There is a lot of uncertainty right now. It was like last year. He brought in Allen because he knew he might not be able to count on unstable Akinjo who he might have to be benched for insubordination (which Coach wasn't able to do freshman year because of no alternative) or leave through transfer. That was the correct move and would have paid off if it was only Akinjo who had transferred. Given the results if we had been able to keep everyone else and had Terrell starting we would have been well positioned to do well in the tournament (although Corona would have crashed our party)

This is a good interview Overtime did with Mac right after he declared... according to Mac himself, he sees himself as a point guard at the next level... a "scoring point guard" to be exact.
The part where he talks about playing point is around the 5 minute mark.

Funny that everyone still thinks Mac is actually Riff Raff’s cousin lol.

Are these the draft ranking? or what are they? Per the first tweet, it's a ranking of NCAA basketball players by an offensive metric they calculated.

I guess that # 17 is pretty good for a sophomore that was injured a good part of the year.

In his sophomore season, McClung didn't have a single breakaway highlight dunk, Did you watch the games this season?

I didn't write that, the author of the article did - so not sure why you're directing the question at me. Moderator Note: I added quote tags around the quote you posted from the linked article in your post above. That makes it more obvious that you are quoting it rather than it being something you wrote.
You can click on the "quote" button on the top of the post and then paste the material between the tags before posting it.

He did have some, not as much as freshman year. Also, I felt he got fouled a number of times as a breakaway opportunity was unfolding. Unfortunately, Mac’s a marked man.

So teams have already watched any and all workout videos from Mac and Omer and can no longer watch any more? You would presume that both have already heard from or soon will hear from NBA teams about their draft prospects. Omer will probably not return either way, and go to Europe if he doesn't get drafted. Hopefully we will hear from Mac sooner than later about whether or not he's returning to school.

Same article says Austin Freeman went to Gonzaga, not DeMatha, so take that for what it's worth

It basically says they can't coerce submissions or suggest that anyone should work out for them right now, because you know teams would hint for video of what they want to see and put people at risk. They're basically treating submissions of workout tape the way MTV treats submissions of videos for that Rob Dyrdek Ridiculousness show, which seems like a responsible move.

My personal opinion Mac is staying in the draft. His brand in G-League would bring out a new fan base.
