He played at William Henry Harrison High School, and as a senior in 1992 led his team to the Evansville II sectional championship and was named to the Indiana All Star Team.
In 1994, McCarty's made three-pointer completed Kentucky's 31-point comeback over LSU—the biggest second-half rally in NCAA history.
McCarty played college basketball at the University of Kentucky where he was a part of the team that won the NCAA championship in 1996.
He was selected by the Knicks with the 19th pick in the 1996 NBA draft.

McCarty played in all 82 games that season, starting 64 of them.
He also established career highs in virtually every category during this season.
Over the next few years, he was one of Boston's top options off the bench, often making a key defensive play or three point shot.
He became a fan favorite in Boston for his gutsy play, hustle, and penchant for making the big shot.
He was also a favorite of Hall of Fame player, coach and longtime announcer Tommy Heinsohn, who often exclaimed, "I love Walter!"
after some of McCarty's plays.
In February 2005, McCarty was traded, along with an undisclosed amount of cash, to the Suns for a second-round pick as a result of the Celtics' youth movement.
He signed with the Clippers in the offseason of 2005.
In June 2007, McCarty accepted an assistant coach job at the University of Louisville under head men's basketball coach Rick Pitino, under whom he played at Kentucky and with the Celtics.
In June 2010, McCarty was named as an assistant coach for the Indiana Pacers under Jim O'Brien, replacing Lester Conner.
Walter also played for O'Brien during his tenure with the Celtics.
In 2011, McCarty was let go by the Pacers when Frank Vogel took over as head coach.
In August 2013, McCarty joined the Boston Celtics as an assistant coach for the 2013–14 NBA season.
He last served as head coach of the Evansville Purple Aces from 2018 to 2019.
McCarty was born in Evansville, Indiana.
On March 22, 2018, McCarty was hired as the head men's basketball coach in University of Evansville.
UE stated that they have "received reports of unwelcome conduct by Coach McCarty since his arrival in March 2018" and that McCarty's success does not "in any way outweigh the need to uphold the standards that define our university."
On November 12, 2019, McCarty led Evansville to their first victory over a #1 ranked opponent in a 67–64 victory over Kentucky at Rupp Arena in Lexington.
On December 27, 2019, McCarty was placed on administrative leave after UE received "a troubling report about Coach McCarty’s interactions with a member of the campus community" which appeared to violate Title IX.
After additional alleged reports of inappropriate conduct came to light, Evansville fired McCarty on January 21, 2020.
In a statement defending McCarty, his attorney said he did not engage in any sexual misconduct and that University made an unfair rush to judgment.
McCarty's attorney also pointed out: "The investigation was not independent - UE hired the same national law firm to conduct the investigation that it previously hired to draft the University policies now under review. UE then actively participated in the investigation and, prior to its conclusion, terminated Walter without him having an opportunity to defend himself in accordance with his contract or UE’s Title IX Policy."
In a statement, UE school officials said that McCarty had been counseled the previous year for inappropriate behavior, and had taken part in Title IX training.
The statement added that while the investigation would continue, "the facts uncovered thus far" demanded McCarty's immediate firing.
In a letter to the university community obtained by local NBC affiliate WFIE-TV, UE president Christopher Pietruszkiewicz said that the investigation had uncovered "persistent and troublesome facts" about McCarty's behavior, and that McCarty had allegedly attempted to "improperly influence witnesses."
Based on this and other incidents, Pietruszkiewicz and other school officials concluded that it was "untenable" for McCarty to remain as head coach.
Both the university's statement and the letter from Pietruszkiewicz said, "There is no place at UE for any behavior by any university employee or student that jeopardizes the safety and security of others."
In April 2021, a former student sued the university and McCarty alleging he sexually assaulted her.
In the midst of the firing, supporters of McCarty also shared their suspicions that three hours after they fired McCarty, the University of Evansville hired new head coach Todd Lickliter to a multi-year contract.
McCarty was hired as head coach of the Ostioneros de Guaymas, a Mexican team in the Circuito de Baloncesto de La Costa del Pacífico (CIBACOPA).
The following year, he took over the Rayos de Hermosillo and led the team to an appearance in the CIBACOPA finals.
In September 2023, McCarty was hired as the head coach of the Freseros de Irapuato in the Liga Nacional de Baloncesto Profesional (LNBP).
