Golden State Warriors (2016–present)

On June 23, 2016, McCaw was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with the 38th overall pick in the 2016 NBA draft. He was later traded to the Golden State Warriors on draft night for cash considerations. Warriors executive board member, Jerry West, felt McCaw should not have slipped that far, saying "People are gonna be sorry they didn't draft him." On July 6, he signed with the Warriors and joined the team for the 2016 NBA Summer League. He made his debut for the Warriors in their season opener on October 25 against the San Antonio Spurs. In nine minutes off the bench, he recorded two points, two assists, one steal and one block in a 129–100 loss.

On December 29, he was assigned to the Santa Cruz Warriors, Golden State's D-League affiliate. The next day, he was recalled by Golden State.
