Caleb McCarty brings efficient interior production and low-mistake frontcourt minutes
In the 2024-25 season, Caleb McCarty gave South Carolina State efficient, if modest, production in limited minutes: 4.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.1 blocks, and 0.7 steals per game while shooting 57.3% from the field.[1][10] His calling card is rim protection and activity around the basket rather than volume scoring, and his 2024-25 advanced numbers show a positive defensive impact with a 98.7 defensive rating and 59.6% true-shooting efficiency.[3] He looks like a fit for teams needing a physical, effort-driven forward who can finish inside and defend multiple possessions without needing plays called for him.[3][10]
