Rookie Rivalry Turns Playful: Justin Edwards Makes Sixers’ Jared McCain Rock Kentucky Gear After Bet
The Philadelphia 76ers boast a dynamic rookie duo in former Duke guard Jared McCain and Kentucky forward Justin Edwards — and their friendly rivalry is keeping things lively both on and off the court.
After making a bet, Edwards had the last laugh when McCain, the loser, was caught on video sporting a Wildcats shirt. McCain quickly tried to hide the Kentucky gear, but not before Edwards captured the moment, sharing the playful victory with fans.
Both players spent just one season with their respective college teams before making the jump to the NBA. McCain, the No. 16 overall pick, has been lighting it up lately — scoring a career-high 34 points and dishing out 10 assists against the Cavaliers, despite the 76ers’ home loss.
With McCain hitting at least 23 points in three straight games, maybe that Kentucky blue is his new lucky charm. Either way, this rookie rivalry is one to watch as these two continue to grow together in Philly.
