Could the highly entertaining and somewhat successful (surprisingly) experiment between JaVale McGee and the Golden State Warriors be nearing an end? McGee was given an opportunity to revive his NBA career last season by filling what was at the time a much-needed role as a rim protector for a Warriors team lacking size and length [...]

Plenty of people changed their opinion of JaVale McGee over the past season. His performance with the Golden State Warriors has been that convincing, as has his attitude. Not everyone is sold, though. There is, apparently, at least one player on the Cleveland Cavaliers that doesn’t believe McGee has the mental chops to play in the [...]

The Dallas Mavericks’ loss looks like it’ll end up being JaVale McGee’s gain. Whiffing on DeAndre Jordan in free agency has left the Mavs to shift their course and try putting together a competitive unit on the fly.

JaVale McGee to the Boston Celtics? He wouldn’t. Not with him ostensibly negotiating a buyout with the Philadelphia 76ers just so he could play on a postseason-bound team. And they wouldn’t. Not with McGee’s track record, a resume rife with injuries, conditioning issues, inconsistent play and, at times, apparent mental lapses. Well, McGee would. And [...]

The Sixers are record-wise still terrible this season, but arguably more fun to watch—thanks to their promising young guns and a little bit of credit to newly-acquired center Javale McGee. However, it looks like Mcgee’s days as a member of the Sixers will be cut short as both parties have come to an agreement for [...]
