JaVale McGee (19 PTS) Brings a Spark off the Bench vs. New Orleans Pelicans ' Phoenix Suns

MARCH 17, 2022 • YOUTUBE

Superb contribution from bench McGee contributed 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-5 FT) and six rebounds across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 131-115 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact McGee converted 70 percent of his shots and logged his highest minute count in more than a month. The Suns ultimately went with the hotter hand in the second half, leaving Deandre Ayton on the bench for some much-needed rest.

Owns the glass McGee finished with 11 points (5-13 FG, 1-1 FT), 15 rebounds and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 111-90 victory over the Heat.

Impact McGee supplied a monster double-double -- featuring seven offensive rebounds -- across just 16 minutes Wednesday. He had more offensive rebounds than Miami as a team. Outworking and physically besting the Miami frontcourt, no Heat player secured more than six rebounds. McGee is a quality back-up big and an admirable Deandre Ayton insurance policy.

Outproduces Ayton McGee supplied nine points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds and one block across 18 minutes during Thursday's 124-104 win over the Thunder.

Impact The void of Chris Paul (thumb) was apparent through wrinkles in incorporating Phoenix's big man offensively, as Deandre Ayton finished with just five shots. McGee benefitted from comfort in his bench role and flirted with a double-double in limited work. He's still best regarded as an Ayton insurance policy in standard leagues and can remain on the wire.

Double-doubles off bench McGee registered 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-1 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 18 minutes during Tuesday's 114-109 win over the 76ers.

Impact McGee notched his eighth double-double of the campaign and his fourth as a reserve. Over his last four games, the veteran center has averaged 12.3 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.3 blocks in just 17.5 minutes per game. This level of production is likely unsustainable in the long run, but he's certainly worthy of fantasy consideration, especially if Deandre Ayton is forced to miss any time.

Big game off bench McGee tallied 16 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and three blocks across 22 minutes Monday in the Suns' 127-124 win over the Bulls.

Impact McGee's three-pointer was just his second of the season, bringing some unexpected value to an already strong stat line. Though Deandre Ayton has returned from a recent seven-game absence due to an ankle injury, McGee looks secure as his top backup, despite Bismack Biyombo having delivered a string of solid outings to close January. Biyombo played just one minute Monday and hasn't seen more than 10 minutes in any of the four games since Ayton returned.
