Jared McCain Drops 30 (Shades of Nail Polish): Rookie Guard Launches “MVP” Most Valuable Polish

Philadelphia 76ers rookie Jared McCain just made his biggest off-court crossover—into the beauty aisle. On May 16, the 21-year-old guard unveiled his nail polish collection, MVP: Most Valuable Polish, in collaboration with Sally Hansen, at a launch event in Los Angeles .

The five-shade Miracle Gel set is more than just a nod to McCain’s signature look—it’s a personal statement. The colors include:

• Bucket Blue: A shimmering tribute to his nickname.

• Goat Gold: For those aiming to be the greatest.

• Point Guard Pink: A bubblegum hue with flair.

• Rookie Red: A bold, confident crimson.

• Net Neutral: A calm, off-white tone for everyday wear.

McCain began painting his nails at Duke University to curb nail-biting—a habit that turned into a form of self-expression. “It’s crazy to even think that when I first started painting my nails that I’d be here with my own collection,” he shared in a TikTok video .

Priced at $12.99, the collection is available on Amazon Beauty and other retailers. For fans looking to sport Sixers pride, a trio pack featuring red, white, and blue shades is also offered .

With MVP, McCain isn’t just setting trends—he’s redefining them, one polished nail at a time. Is Jared an entrepreneurial genius? These Duke dudes are just different.
