NBA Fans were left talking for the wrong reasons on Wednesday. While Fans knew how the OKC Thunder welcomed Jared McCain after a recent trade, they couldn’t help but hilariously speculate just how chaotic the Thunder’s locker room would be with the addition of an energetic, zesty McCain.
The trade involved McCain, former Philadelphia 76ers guard, being sent to the Thunder in exchange for a first-round pick and three second-round picks. While a bold trade coming from OKC, NBA Fans gave insights on how McCain, known for his zesty TikTok dances, will fit with the Thunder.
However, user @RatioNChill pulled no punches and questioned McCain’s sexuality, asking, “question. Is he openly gay or?”

The post ended in a cliffhanger, but user @SWNLazer3 instantly bombed it, boldly writing, “U gotta make it obvious that ur gay so other gays will know its gotta be some kind of code.”
Meanwhile, NBA Fans like user @winwithwavey couldn’t help but find McCain at his new home hilarious, dubbing him and the Thunder bench as the “fruity generation.” User @DG223556 didn’t hold back and wrote, “The ultimate squad of b*t** a** n***a* is now complete.”
Still, NBA Fans gave zesty insights on the Thunder’s new addition. User @betswithvinnie claimed McCain isn’t of benefit to the team, remarking, “All this guy does is TikTok dances.”
User @Nettorious believes the youngin will be a perfect fit, posting, “He’s going to fit in very well over there. Alot of zesty shit going on in OKC.” User @AntLive617 commented, “Good so now they can all dress alike and wear a pocketbook.”
Kidding aside, NBA Fans just saw Oklahoma add another future star in their lineup, putting him alongside fellow youngins in a team that arguably has the best bench on the NBA right now.

While NBA Fans are making fun of McCain’s girly TikTok dances, some believe the Thunder had made the right move by bringing the young star to their fray. Fans saw the good in McCain’s plays, as he did shine bright with Philadelphia before being sidelined due to a meniscus tear in 2024.
User @NBA2K0387 believes McCain is in good hands, writing, “Zesty but he knows how to get buckets for sure! Thunder got a steal!” Meanwhile, user @FCB_S27 wrote, “He might be sesty but that 3 phew.”
User @hawkman_cards couldn’t hep but praise McCain’s skills, writing, “I hate knowing that this guy would cook me on a basketball court…”
With McCain at the Thunder, NBA Fans look forward to how much he’ll fit with the team, and if he does, then the Thunder’s future is still in good hands.
