a rebound-first forward who turned hard work into Big 12 production
McKinney’s value shows up in the gritty stuff: in his 2012-13 TCU season, he led the Horned Frogs in rebounding at 6.4 per game, ranked ninth in the Big 12 on the glass, and was fourth in the league in offensive rebounds while also scoring 7.5 points per game.[3] TCU highlighted his offseason growth, work ethic, and expanded role as key drivers of that leap, and his 20-rebound game against Houston underscored his motor and physicality.[2][3] He profiles as a dependable, effort-driven frontcourt fit for a team that needs toughness, boards, and low-maintenance production.
