JaVale McGee just finished a season in which he appeared in 46 games for the Sacramento Kings.
The former USC star averaged 4.0 points and 2.7 rebounds per game and shot 59.8% from the field.
That summer, McGee became a free agent, able to sign with any team in the league.
On August 16, he is still available.
McGee could be an excellent addition to a contending team’s roster.
At 36, he may not be at his best anymore, but he is still a serviceable center with a lot of experience.
McGee was selected 18th overall by the Washington Wizards in the 2008 NBA Draft.
Over the course of his 16 seasons, he also played for the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, Denver Nuggets, Dallas Mavericks, Phoenix Suns, Cleveland Cavaliers and Philadelphia 76ers (in addition to the Wizards and Kings).
He had the best season of his career in 2019 with the Lakers, when he averaged 12.0 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per game in 75 games, while making 62.4% of his shots from the field.
His career averages are 7.6 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game while shooting 57.8% from the field in 909 regular season games.
He won three NBA championships with the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors.
The Kings finished last year ninth in the Western Conference with a record of 46-36.
They lost in the play-in tournament against the New Orleans Pelicans and thus missed the NBA playoffs.
