He played college basketball for the UNLV Runnin' Rebels. McCaw won a NBA Championship with the Warriors in his rookie season in 2017.
McCaw initially attended Christian Brothers College High School but transferred to Montrose Christian School as a senior, where he averaged 13 points per game and led the team to a 20–5 record and the National Christian School Athletic Association Division I title. After he graduated, he was ranked as the 38th best shooting guard in the country.

In his sophomore season, he played 33 games and averaged 14.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.45 steals in 33.7 minutes, having the second most steals in the nation. He was named to the Second Team All-Mountain West Conference and was named to the Mountain West All-Defensive Team.
On April 4, 2016, McCaw declared for the NBA draft.
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, 2016, he signed with the Warriors and joined the team for the 2016 NBA Summer League.
