JaVale McGee delivers message regarding future Warriors lob attempts
JaVale McGee registers nine points, five boards in 1st startWith Zaza Pachulia missing his third straight game on Tuesday, JaVale McGee started for the first time this season.
He recorded nine points (4-for-5 shooting) and five rebounds in 16 minutes.
"Felt good," McGee told reporters after the Warriors' 113-109 win. "I was just trying to stay down on pump fakes, not get in foul trouble and just be a spark."
Warriors players and coaches have been praising McGee's presence and how teams have to take into account his ability to roll to the rim and finish lobs.
Against the Pelicans, McGee shot his first lob attempt from Steph Curry over the rim.
