According to Alex Kennedy of Basketball Insiders the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks are interested in free agent center JaVale McGee.

McGee is most known for his low basketball IQ and is often the brunt of jokes on TNT. He has spent time with the Washington Wizards, Denver Nuggets, and had a brief stint with the Philadelphia 76ers last season.

I actually was at the Milwaukee Bucks 76ers game… don’t ask me why and McGee saw limited minutes on the worst team in the league. Maybe he was going to be too positive of a contributor… who knows but he didn’t last very long out there.

When the Clippers lost DeAndre Jordan for a brief second the Clippers we’re rumored to be interested in the big man. Many experts believed that the Doc Rivers would be able to get the most out of McGee just like he was able to do with Jordan.

The Lakers currently have Roy Hibbert and Robert Sacre as their two centers. Adding McGee could add some more depth and length at the position which never hurts. McGee is a great athlete and would be able to help a Laker team who struggled on defense last season.

Currently McGee is working to get healthy and when he does he will make his decision. It may make more sense for the him to choose the Dallas Mavericks as they have more of need for a big. He may even start their depending on what direction they look to go in.
