JaVale McGee on being in Phoenix: β€œThe weather is amazing. Going outside in the middle of winter and just relaxing is an amazing thing. Especially coming from Cleveland and Denver… This ain't winter. This is winter with cactuses. You ever had snow to your waist? It's a different world. I'm 7-foot.” streamable.com/6mvr95

There is a very strong case that JaVale McGee, at age 34, is having the best season of his career.

I think everyone expected McGee to be a solid signing for Phoenix who could provide much-needed rebounding and rim running. But when you really dive into his production this season...it's honestly crazy.

McGee is averaging 10.8/7.6 and 0.8 blocks on a career-high 68% TS, but primarily as Ayton's backup. His Per 36 numbers are:

24.4 points (career high)

17.1 rebounds (career high)

10.4 2Ps (career high)

3.3 FTs (2nd best of career)

Advanced numbers love his production as well. His BPM of 2.0 is a career-high. His EPM ranks...6th in the entire NBA, wedged between LeBron and Durant!

The Suns also boast a defensive rating of just 97 with McGee on the court, which is absurd.

Where does he rank among the league's backup bigs?

[PD] Javale McGee

Javale is playing 15 minutes a game and averaging 10.5 points and 7.4 rebounds this season. His fg% and ft% are decent at .658 and .697 respectively.

He was rostered in 33% last week but has jumped to 45% of leagues currently, maybe because of the nba.com article or yahoo recommending him as a pickup.

For 9cat, is he a streamer or a solid hold for the almost double double per game?

The Warriors have started running a play for GP2 they used to run for... Javale McGee.

The play:

Payton comes upcourt for a screen. His defender leaves him to double Curry, who passes to the elbow, who lobs the ball up for Payton to dunk.

Because apparently we can play a 6'3" guard at center on offense.

And it works.

Only Lebron James (4) has more NBA Championships than JaVale McGee (3) among active players

I just finished watching the NBC documentary "For Ball and Country" about the US Men's Olympic Basketball team and it got me thinking. JaVale has obviously taken a lot of grief during his basketball career for not always making the smartest plays, especially as a young player. It's pretty impressive that he's now a 3X NBA Champion and Olympic Gold medalist.

The list of active NBA players with at least 2 Championships is actually surprisingly short:

4 Titles: (1 player) Lebron James

3 Titles: (8 players) Stephen Curry, Danny Green, Draymond Green, Udonis Haslem, Andre Iguodala, Patrick McCaw, JaVale McGee, Klay Thompson

2 Titles: (7 players) Chris Boucher, Quinn Cook, Kevin Durant, Damian Jones, Kawhi Leonard, Kevon Looney, Rajon Rondo

I think that's everyone. Let me know if I missed anyone. Only 56 days until the season begins!

Edit #1: Make that 6 players with 2 titles. I didn't know about Chris Boucher with 2 (GSW / TOR).

Edit #2: Changed format to help w/ mobile + old Reddit.

Edit #3: Can't believe I forgot my boy Kevon Looney as #7 w/ 2 Titles!

(Plus/Minus Review) Jordan Clarkson led all players last night in "plus/minus" - notching a +29 in 31 minutes. The following players all led their respective teams – Ty Jerome, Denis Schroeder, Andre Drummond, JaVale McGee

Note: I plan to capture and record the top individual figures from each game from the previous day. Plus/minus is not a perfect statistic by any means, and it is often used as an index of individual performance like counting stats. That's NOT what I intend to do here. I think single game +/- figures can reflect interesting things that are not immediately obvious about games from the headlines. Which players made a two-way impact? Which players are part of particularly useful rotations? When did teams win games? Some games are won in the 2nd quarter, for example, when players like Ty Jerome provide a stopgap to keep a Thunder team competitive with the Lakers when nobody else is making baskets.

  1. Jordan Clarkson (+29 in 31 minutes)
  2. Denis Schroeder (+26 in 30 minutes)
  3. Andre Drummond (+20 in 18 minutes).
  4. Ty Jerome (+18 in 21 minutes)
  5. Javale McGee (+13 in 17 minutes)
