The guy has grit. Knows every pick and roll play. Visionary on the court. He got here by pitting in all the extra hours not just athleticism. First guy in and last one out. He watches film on the plane and is such a student of the game.

I think the only reason he got a shot at the NBA was because the Sixers were tanking their arse off and accidentally discovered he’s pretty good.

Also makes wise shot selection and will probably have a front office job when he retires.

Solid fundamentals. He works hard and is a very smart player. He's a poor man's John Stockton.

Aaron Craft is out there somewhere mad that McConnell stole his career.

He has a team option for $1,600,520 next year. I bet he hopes they decline it.

So happy for TJ. Worked his arse off to get himself an NBA job, after a stellar career at Zona.

He said he would “walk across the country to get a shot at the nba”. Deserves it.
