[23] [24] In Game 4 of the 76ers' second-round playoff series against the Celtics, McConnell had a career-high 19 points, seven rebounds and five assists in a 103–92 win, helping Philadelphia cut the series deficit to 3–1.

[29] In August 2021, the Pacers re-signed McConnell to a 4-year, $35 million deal. [30] On December 1, he suffered a right wrist injury in a 111–114 loss to the Atlanta Hawks.

Personal life

His father, Tim, is one of the most successful coaches in WPIAL (Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League) history. After many successful runs with the Chartiers Valley High School Boys and Girls basketball teams, McConnell was summoned by Bishop Canevin's athletic director, Dale Checketts, to become the head coach of the Bishop Canevin High School Boys basketball team, a position recently vacated by T.J's roommate at Duquesne University, Gino Palmosina. Additionally, he is often seen jogging at Collier Park, which is also the location of the T.J. McConnell Memorial Court. [38] He played at Waynesburg College (now Waynesburg University) from 1984 to 1986. [2] [39]

T.J. has two siblings: Matthew and Megan. Matthew "Matty" McConnell took his basketball talents to Robert Morris University before his graduation in 2018. Matthew and T.J. both share the same notable distinction as the only two players in the history of Chartiers Valley High School basketball to accrue 2,000 points in their high school careers. Megan McConnell, a former star basketball player at Chartiers Valley High School, is currently one of the lead guards for Duquesne University's Women's Basketball.

His aunt, Suzie McConnell-Serio, was an All-American at Penn State (1985–1988), Olympic gold medalist and WNBA standout prior to being inducted to the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in 2008. She started her college coaching career at Duquesne. [1]

He married his high school sweetheart, Valerie, at Holy Child Parish (now known as Corpus Christi Parish) in September 2017; teammate Nik Stauskas, and his roommate at Duquesne University, Gino Palmosina, served as the groomsmen. [40]
