LOS ANGELES — JaVale McGee is one of the most defiantly confident players on the Lakers, with the latest example of this quality coming not just in the fact that he had the chutzpah to attempt a running hook shot in the fourth quarter, but also in his reaction when he was asked why he had taken said shot.
“I always look to use my hook shot, because it’s definitely unstoppable,” McGee said.
For what it’s worth, McGee is shooting 44 percent on hook shots this year, according to NBA.
