JaVale McGee is having a really good season for the Golden State Warriors. He’s provided a good spark off the bench. Even better, he filled in nicely in the starting lineup when Zaza Pachulia went down with injury.
He hasn’t been great defensively, but his offense more than makes up for it. McGee gives Golden State’s high-octane offense another dimension. He’s a threat whenever he heads towards the rim because his athleticism and long arms make the alley-oop a dangerous weapon for the Warriors.
The casual fan probably doesn’t know how effective he’s been for Golden State.
