relentless, low-mistake floor general who changes games with pace and pressure
McConnell is a high-energy guard whose value goes beyond the box score: in the 2025-26 season he averaged 9.3 points, 5.1 assists and 1.0 steals per game while shooting 52.7% from the field, and his late-game bursts have included multi-steal, high-assist playoff-level impact.[1][3][4] He stands out for relentless pace, ball pressure, quick decision-making and the kind of bench-led toughness coaches trust in tight games; if you want a spark plug who raises your defensive intensity and keeps the offense organized, he’s a strong fit.[6][11][15]
