Dallas Mavericks free agency grade: JaVale McGee signing
McGee averaged 9.2 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks in 15.8 minutes per game last season for the Suns. The 34-year-old has played 14 NBA seasons, and he has averaged over 20 minutes per game just three times. McGee told Tim MacMahon he plans to be the Mavericks starting center, but fans should only expect him to play around 15 minutes per game.
McGee will be impactful in those minutes. He protects the rim, rebounds, and gives Dallas another rim-rolling threat. The seven-footer is a significant upgrade over Dwight Powell on both ends of the floor, and he is a three-time NBA champion.
Dallas Mavericks grade for JaVale McGee deal: B+
