The Golden State Warriors once won two championships with well-loved center JaVale McGee rim-running and shot blocking for the team. Now McGee has continued his career by signing with another contending team to compete for another championship.
One of the best turnarounds in recent NBA history is the career of JaVale McGee. He came into the league as the 18th pick in the 2008 NBA Draft and joined the Washington Wizards, and a relatively immature young center was suddenly surrounded by immature teammates who did a host of dumb things. McGee's game on the court was mediocre and his problems off the court kept hitting the headlines.
