Here's what Elite Prospects had to say about him:
"Night in and night out, McKinney brings the same high-end attention to detail and determination. Forcing turnover after turnover, he never stops engaging opponents. He pushes them into support, to the walls, and traps them. With proactive physicality and a strong stick, he rips away possession from bigger opponents and puts his team right back on the attack."
