He has an ability to get in the lane and is great on a straight-line drive with his ability to get in there and finish on contact. He takes a lot of pride defensively. He wants to guard the other team’s best player and we’re going to be able to versatile with him defensively. He’s a great rebounder and get the ball off the backboard and start the break. He’s going to make our team deeper.”((https://umassathletics.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/cairo-mccrory/12064))   * [[mccall_matt|Coach McCall]] quote on McCrory's signing: “The one thing about Cairo is a competitor.
