McGee nears Wolf Pack scoring record in NBA playoff win

Who needs Kevin Durant when you have JaVale McGee?

With Durant, the former NBA MVP sidelined with a minor injury, McGee had one of the best postseason games by a Wolf Pack alum ever.

McGee scored 15 points on 7-of-7 shooting from the field and 1-of-1 shooting from the free throw line. He had five rebounds and four blocks while playing only 13 minutes in Golden State's 110-81 win over Portland, which gave the Warriors a 2-0 series lead Wednesday.

The game marked the fourth time McGee has reached double-figures in scoring in a playoff game and was tied for the fifth-most points scored by a Nevada player in a postseason NBA game.
