McRae joined Baskonia for the 2017–18 EuroLeague season, playing his first season in Spain after signing a one-year deal on August 20, 2017.
McRae’s time in Vitoria-Gasteiz was limited by a left-shoulder injury, and he appeared in three EuroLeague games with averages of 5.0 points, 1.0 rebound, and 0.7 assists per game before undergoing surgery and parting ways with the club in early January 2018 after playing four total games across competitions.
His fourth appearance was one domestic Spanish Liga ACB game, against Tecnyconta Zaragoza on 29 October 2017. In 17:36 minutes for Baskonia, McRae scored five points, grabbed three rebounds, handed out two assists, made two steals and blocked one shot, shooting 2-of-8 from the field including 1-of-5 three-pointers. The ACBs official archive records this single game as his entire Spanish domestic league career, separate from the three EuroLeague fixtures.
McRae later joined the Beijing Ducks for the 2020–21 Chinese Basketball Association season after signing on December 27, 2020, on a deal reported as worth $1.5 million for 25 games, and he played seven games while averaging 11.3 points per game.
McRae joined Metropolitans 92 on 22 August 2021 for the 2021–22 French LNB Pro A season, sharing the roster with Nobel Boungou-Colo and David Michineau. In 19 French top-division regular-season appearances he averaged 14.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 0.9 steals in 25.7 minutes per game, hitting 38.7 percent of his three-pointers and 84.2 percent of his free throws. He recorded 270 points and 42 assists over those 19 games. In a separate Coupe de France appearance, McRae scored 25 points with two rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes, making all nine of his free throws. The French federations historical archive additionally attributes 12 EuroCup appearances at 13.1 points, 1.3 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, distinct from the French league and French Cup. Some secondary databases show fewer EuroCup games; the 12-game figure is specifically identified as the federations historical record.
McRae joined Hapoel Tel Aviv for the 2022–23 Israeli Basketball Premier League season after signing on September 23, 2022, and he led the club in league scoring with 16.6 points per game across 20 Israeli Basketball Super League regular-season appearances (15 starts), adding 3.3 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.9 steals in 29.5 minutes. He shot 42.4% from three-point range while playing alongside teammates including J’Covan Brown, Chinanu Onuaku, JP Tokoto and Jaylen Hoard.
In the same 2022–23 campaign, McRae played EuroCup games for Hapoel Tel Aviv and produced a EuroCup single-game high of 36 points against the London Lions on January 11, 2023, later being named EuroCup Round 9, Round 10, and Round 14 MVP, and he earned All-Israeli League Second Team recognition for the season.
McRae also started eight Israeli league playoff games for Hapoel Tel Aviv in 2022–23, averaging 14.6 points, 1.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 29.0 minutes per game. His domestic playoff record is distinct from his EuroCup performances.
McRae joined AEK Athens for the 2023–24 Greek Basket League season after signing a one-year contract on July 14, 2023, and across Greek league and Basketball Champions League play he averaged 13.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game while joining a roster that also added Mindaugas Kuzminskas during the same summer window.
McRae later agreed terms with Al Ittihad Alexandria in Egypt ahead of the 2024–25 season, with reports noting his 2023–24 production at AEK Athens of 13.5 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.1 steals per game in Greek league play alongside 14.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game in the Basketball Champions League.
McRae joined Scafati Basket for the 2024–25 Lega Basket Serie A season in Italy after signing in late October 2024. Across five Italian Serie A regular-season games he averaged 3.8 points, 0.8 rebounds and 0.8 assists. In Scafatis 90–57 defeat away to Reggio Emilia on 1 December 2024, McRae scored eight points in 18 minutes, shooting 3-of-5 on two-pointers and making both of his free throws; he attempted one three-pointer but missed. Scafati were held to 57 points while Reggio Emilias Cassius Winston scored 20. This was a domestic league appearance, not a EuroCup or playoff game.
McRae returned to Israel by joining Hapoel Holon for the 2025–26 season, with his move reported as a September 1, 2025 arrival, and he reconnected with head coach Danny Franco after their earlier season together in Tel Aviv while taking part in domestic play and Basketball Champions League activity for Holon. In 17 Israeli Basketball Super League regular-season games in 2025–26 (16 starts), McRae averaged 14.4 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 28.0 minutes, shooting 31.4% from three-point range. His domestic season high was 25 points against Hapoel Galil Elyon in Round 8.
