McClellan is an explosive big guard. He's closing in on 6'4". In the halfcourt game he's a better lateral ballhandler than he is north-south but in transition he's deadly. He's got good court vision and is deadly, finishing way above the rim. Somewhat of a late bloomer, he'll be a steal for a Southland school or any other mid major. I fully expect him to have a great senior season which will will see his stock soar.-Coach Max Ivany
