Professional career
Golden State Warriors (2016–present)
On June 23, 2016, McCaw was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with the 38th overall pick in the 2016 NBA draft. He was later traded to the Golden State Warriors on draft night for cash considerations.[2] Warriors executive board member, Jerry West, felt McCaw should not have slipped that far, saying "People are gonna be sorry they didn't draft him."[3] On July 6, he signed with the Warriors and joined the team for the 2016 NBA Summer League.[4]
He made his debut for the Warriors in their season opener on October 25 against the San Antonio Spurs. In nine minutes off the bench, he recorded two points, two assists, one steal and one block in a 129–100 loss.[5] McCaw continues to impress. In his postgame interview Wednesday (11/16/16) night with Comcast SportsNet’s Rosalyn Gold-Onwude, Andre Iguodala expressed concern over his job security. "He’s gonna take my job,” Iguodala, smiling, said of guard Patrick McCaw. “I’m gonna be out of a job.” -- San Francisco Chronicle [6]
