High school career

He was part of a 2005 Chicago area sophomore class that was considered to be the best in the history of the state of Illinois. [2] It included Derrick Rose and his St. Joseph's teammate Turner. Isiah Thomas is St. Joseph's most famous basketball alum, but McCamey was at the time mentioned as the potential next great St. Joseph's product. The class of 2007 was compared to the Chicago area class of 1979 that included Thomas, Terry Cummings, and Darrell Walker as well as the class of 1998 that included Quentin Richardson, Corey Maggette, Frank Williams, Bobby Simmons, Michael Wright. [2] McCamey was considered the second best area prospect after Rose. [3] [4]

As a junior, he and Turner attended 2005 Midnight Madness with the Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball team. [5] At the beginning of his junior season, Chicago Tribune named him to its annual top Chicago metropolitan area basketball players list, [6] and it ranked St. Joseph number three in the area. [7] The team went to the state sectional final before its season ended with a 75–72 sectional final loss to Proviso East High School. [8] After his junior season, he was considered one of the top 25 prospects in the country in his class according to one scout, [9] and he was given special mention by the Chicago Tribune and honorable mention by the Associated Press for all-state honors. [10]

During his senior season, his team was listed second to Rose's Simeon Career Academy in the preseason Tribune Chicago area high school basketball team rankings. [11] That season, he was named to the second-team Associated Press 2006–07 Class AA all-state team, a day before Rose's Simeon eliminated Turner's St. Joseph in the Illinois Class AA supersectional. [12] [13] McCamey and Turner finished sixth and third to Rose in the Illinois Mr. Basketball voting, [14] and the Chicago Tribune chose both of them as first team All-state selections along with Rose.

College career

Freshman season

When McCamey posted 31 points on February 7, 2008, against Indiana, [20] it was the season high for the 2007-08 Illinois Fighting Illini men's basketball team and the most by an Illinois Fighting Illini men's basketball freshman in fourteen years. [16] During the 2008 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament he made six three point shots in six attempts against Purdue, [21] which set a Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament single-game record and tied the Illinois school single-game record for three point field goal percentage (most made with no misses). [16]

[22] McCamey was also a National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Division I District 7 All‐District second team choice. [23] [24] Since the Big Ten Conference was its own district, this is equivalent to being named second team All-Big Ten by the NABC.

[26] On February 12, 2009, he scored the game-winning bank shot with 2.9 seconds remaining against Northwestern.

McCamey was named co-Big Ten Conference Player of the Week for February 8, 2010. [30] On February 20, he recorded 16 assists, which is the fourth highest single-game total in Big Ten history. [31] This total set an Illinois Fighting Illini men's basketball single-game record. [32]

[34] His total of 254 was the fourth highest in Big Ten history and only 20 shy of Mateen Cleaves' Big Ten single-season record of 274. Williams' 264 is the Fighting Illini record.

[51] [52] McCamey was selected by the United States Basketball Writers Association to its 2010–11 Men's All-District Team. [53] He was among the final ten candidates for the Bob Cousy Award. [54]

As a senior, his assist average fell from 7.1 to 6.1 per game, but his three-point shot and free throw percentages rose from his prior years. He shot 45.1% versus 34.1% in three point shots the prior year, which had been a career best.

His free throw percentage also recovered a bit in his senior season moving to 72.4% from 70.7% but still below his sophomore effort of 76.4%.
