JaVale McGee Believes He, Dwight Howard Have To Stay Engaged When Not Running Pick-And-Roll

With Anthony Davis and LeBron James being teammates for the Los Angeles Lakers, odds are a majority of the set plays will run through them.

That means players like JaVale McGee and Dwight Howard, who are used to being the pick-and-roll man, might have to take a step back offensively.

This was a struggle for the big man duo in the team’s season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. In that game, Howard and McGee simply could not find ways to get involved and it led to them getting lost offensively, struggling to grab rebounds, and fumbling on the defensive end as well.
