Jalen McDaniels totaled five points, four rebounds, an assist and a triple across 16 minutes in the Sixers win at Brooklyn.
McDaniels’ status flip-flopped back and forth Friday night, and he ultimately didn’t take the court after a trade deadline deal that saw the Sixers give up Matisse Thybulle.
Thybulle weas a fan fave because of his defense but he rarely scored or even looked at the basket.
It’s nice to have a 6-9 wing who provides offense.
