Jack McClinton's 3-Point Contest for Marcus Allen

0:00On March 6th, University of Miami basketball star Jack McClendon is stepping up for a great cause. The 2022 Hall of Fame inductee will shoot in a three-point contest that half-time of Saturday's game against Louisville. It's all to help former teammate Marcus Allen battle non-Hochkin lymphoma. The event mirrors the NBA All-Star format with five racks of balls along the arc and a 90 second clock. Every made shot triggers a $100 donation to Allen's GoFundMe from McClendon and his supporters. Fans have already shown strong support for Allen's tough fight, and this contest aims to boost awareness during the hurricane's regular season finale. McClendon brings serious credentials as a sharpshooter, ranking second in Atlantic Coast Conference history for three-point percentage at 44%. He earned back-to-back all ACC first-team honors as a hurricane. Tickets remain available online at the Miami Hurricanes website, so catch the action and cheer on the cause this weekend.
