Basketball fans have noticed McCain paints his nails, which have been painted Duke blue and white for the tournament.
His fashion statement led to McCain signing a deal with beauty brand Sally Hansen.
McCain announced the deal in a recent TikTok post while painting his nails, calling it "self-care time."
"I'm sorry if that offends any of you guys," he said.
"There's really no crazy reason to it. It helps me not bite my nails. I went to a salon one time, and I decided to pick out a color. And I thought it looked nice.
"I know a lot of people disagree. You don't like it. But I'm just gonna be myself and do what I think looks nice."

McCain says he's continued to paint his nails because he's played well in games they had color.
"I'm not crazy superstitious, but I thought it looked nice. I thought it helped me play better," he said. "So far, it's worked."
