Here's a video I put together of Andrew WIggins identical/near identical plays from College/SL that Tracy McGrady had in his career. Enjoy!

Good stuff man. Definitely looks like Wiggins took a page or two from McGrady's book.

I think McGrady, is one of the, if not the most athletically fluid and graceful basketball players on offense to play the game (ball-handling, shooting, general movement-wise). No surprise because I consider his cousin Vince Carter the same, but as to dunking.

McGrady wasn't a great shooter at first but he sure became one.
I remember seeing him go 8 for 8 on threes in the first half against the Cavs. Got fouled on the last one waay behind the arc. But he missed the entire second half due to back spasms or something. Its scary how that one game sums up Tracy McGrady.

Great job. If he puts it's all together he can definitely be on that McGrady level.

He really needs to work on his ball handling to be as good as Tmac was in his prime, who was a point forward. It's too bad those injuries derailed Tmac's career, hopefully Wiggins can become that good, but I'm still unsure.
