Mac is 6'2 without sneakers so thats fine.

Anyway, the Lakers need to not only keep him... but we need to get him in the Dunk Contest.

I stand by it. He brings social media attention but there are better prospects to develop that actually fill a need for the Lakers.

6'3 bulldog on defense, with elite athleticism is a good starting point.

Ugh too tiny, IT syndrome here. Mason Jones should be promoted instead.



without sneakers;

- Mac is 6'2" (similar to Nunn or Monk)

- IT is 5'9"

- Nunn is 6'2"

- Monk is 6'3"

- Mason is 6'4"


Just FYI


Well that's refreshing to learn, feel better just hope Jones can make the big club too next year and not lose him because the organization might favor McClunk (awful in the preseason iirc).


He is really tiny. I wish he was bigger. I sat courtside in Sac Summer League and he was not taller than me and im only 6'0. Btw, Courtside Seats are only $59 for Sac for those that like to plan ahead.


Built like a bulldog though and extremely athletic there’s potential there

yeah he's definitely only 5'11" or 6' but he's a difference maker out there. without draft picks he's the kind of guy you take a chance on to fill out your roster

6'2.5 in shoes. So the same size as Kendrick Nunn.

Considering McClung has worked on his jumpshot and continues to, and is an athletic defensive pest. He is definitely someone to keep around.

You got Caruso potential with him. Too bad Vogel will no longer be around to mold that the way he did with Caruso.

He has potential to be better than Caruso actually in terms of offensive threat and being a pest on defense. Def never a starter IMO but an essential role player and spark guy

At least he's fun to watch and plays hard. I would enjoy seeing him get some run next year.

Its unfair comparing him to Caruso yet. Caruso spent 4 years in college, then in 2016 joined OKC in the G League where he played 50 games. Then got to play 2 seasons between G League and NBA for the lottery Lakers, before he could go on to contribute to the championship Lakers. As far as under the radar undrafted Lakers guards, hes at the same point as Caruso before his 1st season here in their developing stage, and one year behind current Reaves. If next season he can get some serious playing time and show value, show that he can stay on the court, then we can talk.

Mac McClung was grateful for opportunity with Lakers, is just hoping to get better heading into second season
Once a viral sensation in high school, Mac McClung has more than become a legitimate NBA prospect, as he showed this season with the Lakers and their affiliate in South Bay.
