Hes been one of my favorite players in the league since he played for the Sixers. Always so so underrated. Hes the best backup point in the league. People have always told me hes "trash" because they're casual fans and just dont like him because hes not flashy , shooting ten 3's a game , or dunking everything But 10.2 ppg 5.5 apg in only 18 mpg is crazy efficient production . With those numbers projected out to 36 mpg , he'd easily be one of the best point guards in the league if he were starting.

I was waiting on this bro! I love TJ McConnell, he plays like his life is on the line every second that he’s on the floor I love it.

[@thekidshere6955]

His Motor is CRAZY!

[@garrettgrowls]

Official ball-knower. Thank you for spotlighting TJ dude is the best back up PG in the league

[@MSimmonsAZ]

Bear Down TJ. My favorite player these days. My 12 year loves Jrue. This series my boy is getting a good view of fundamentals, playing hard, and being tough. All his friends wanna be steph, but they won't be. But a strong mental, fundamental game, and doing whatever your team needs makes anyone a valuable player at any age or ability.

[@spencer3476]

You raised em right with Jrue Holliday! It’s those underrated, gritty, team players I like

[@russaustin52]

Mark my word TJ McConnel will become an NBA head coach. Lov him

[@Nick-zl5xf]

People were telling me he wasn’t a top 5 bench player, what a bunch of clowns

[@king_supreme1102]

He is. Pacers bench is gonna be insane next season with Mathurin back and Toppin finding his groove.

[@MrMagnaniman]

We love TJ here in Indiana. He just got a 4--year extension today. It'll be a sad day when he retires, but I'm also looking forward to the day he becomes our head coach.

[@KillaBean416]

As a raptors fan, this playoffs is my first time really watching his game … man he plays with fire 🔥 I love it

[@spitgiezer]

Tj’s the perfect example of hard work beats talent player in the league

[@havocc611]

I loved hearing opposing fans gasp at what he can do in game. He kept gainbridge ENTERTAINED this year lol

[@Saint_JRome]

I saw on Reddit a bucks fan say he sweats every time TJ is on the floor. I love his game and I’m glad more KZbinrs are doing more content on him. I love heat checks video on him a few years ago

[@dereekee]

He's been my favorite player for a long time, basically ever since he's been with the Pacers. Dude is all heart and hustle. Leaves it all on the floor every time.

[@withonforafteratbyin]

At one point in time, there were 3 TJs and 2 Holidays on the Pacers. RIP TJ Leaf

[@thebombcat]

TJ is a lynchpin to the Pacers winning next year. All of our guards are amazing but he's special as a point guard. Next year is going to be a blast to watch!

[@zebertbrown1517]

Hard to believe this was only just 2 weeks ago.

[@franzwagner387]

Complete monster on O. Can score at will and as good a passer as there is in the NBA

[@EE-dn9og]

Dude is nice af on the point

[@mrdragonart2895]

Those 9 years you brought up makes me laugh thinking that TJ McConnell is about to get the NBA's retirement benefits before Tony Snell does 😂

[@thekidshere6955]

😂💀

[@octopus8420]

Yes it is, he was always this good. Only the Action he was given changed

[@CrackerBarrelkid555]

Damn Donte is not good on defense lmao TJ was cooking him every time 😂😂

[@kuyajed]

2:55 "OUHH" mf is a SAVAGE hahahaha... Good content. I'm glad you covered TJ hes been 2015's payton pritch. TEXTBOOK BASKETBOL.

[@codyjohns6931]

ive been saying for years tj mcconnel and tyus jones prior to being a starter this year are the best backup pgs in the league and they do it with limited minutes Drop mcconnel on a crap team and give him 35 minutes a gane hes a low turnover 15-20 ppg with 7 8 assists and carry himself on defense and have good shooting splits, thats a very good ball player to me

[@gabrieladdison]

He reminds me a lot of John Stockton. Same height and similar skills

[@MattBooher-ng4qi]

John Stockton has the most steals and assist in NBA history but they're both very tough but John Stockton is in a league of his own

[@gabrieladdison]

@@MattBooher-ng4qi very true. They just remind me of each other really

[@lorenfok1097]

Who's more of a pest Pat Bev or McConnell?

[@sportingminds3311]

TJ McConnell > Ben Simmons

[@monkeymoo87]

TJ is a dog

[@MrMagnaniman]

TJ is actually three dogs in a man suit.

[@2307frosty]

Thanks man, annoying they haven't extended...but I get the business side, worth a FORTUNE as trade asset. That dude would ink a max deal....so I am guessing they are playing the buddy card. Force us to match a max offer alert this season....and he will
