2019 Player Capsule: JaVale McGee

Season Summary
JaVale McGee owned the paint on both sides of the floor this season.

Always a threat to score at the hoop, the starting center made 73.4 percent of his shots at the rim — second-best in the NBA. And he locked down the basket on the other end, swatting the league’s fifth-most shots (1.97).

McGee was efficiency personified when it came to his individual offense. The ultra-athletic 7-footer lived off lobs out of pick-and-rolls and rim-runs in transition.
