Retreating to bench role Saturday McCain is not in the 76ers' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pistons, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

Impact McCain has started in each of the 76ers' last seven games, and over that span he has averaged 23.7 points, 4.4 rebounds,. 2.9 rebounds and 1.0 steal over 36.4 minutes per contest. However, with Paul George (knee) returning from a three-game absence, McCain will come off the bench Saturday as the 76ers opt to go with a double-big lineup of Guerschon Yabusele and Andre Drummond. Despite the demotion to the bench, McCain has earned a permanent spot in the Sixers' rotation and should continue to see plenty of playing time in a reserve role.

Impact McCain has cooled off a bit after putting up impressive numbers over the last two weeks, but that kind of regression was slightly expected since he's a rookie who's still getting used to the NBA.

He's averaging 23.7 points per game since being promoted to the starting lineup seven games ago on Nov. 13.

Struggles with shot Sunday McCain provided 18 points (3-15 FG, 2-11 3Pt, 10-12 FT) and four assists across 28 minutes during Sunday's 125-99 loss to the Clippers.

Impact McCain was coming off five straight games in which he'd scored at least 20 points, but the rookie saw his streak snapped in this one after a woeful shooting performance. That was bound to happen sooner rather than later, but McCain should remain one of the 76ers' go-to players on offense, especially as long as Paul George and Joel Embiid remain sidelined due to their respective knee injuries.
