My Take
What draws me to McDaniels is the chip on the shoulder that a 32nd overall pick inevitably carries. Standing at 198 cm out of Clemson, he slipped to the second round in 2014, and I have always rooted harder for players who grind their way up rather than glide on hype. There is a particular dignity in the role player who makes his living on defense, blocking shots and disrupting offenses without demanding the spotlight. From Birmingham to the NBA, that journey reflects persistence over privilege, and that is the kind of basketball story I find most compelling and most genuinely earned.
