The Warriors have turned JaVale McGee into the JaVale McGee we always knew he could be. On Wednesday night Game 2 of the Warriors series with the Trail Blazers, Javale McGee scored 15 points on 7-for-7 shooting, with one free throw, five rebounds, and four blocks. What a beautiful night for JaVale.

Sure his shots were at the basket but this is exactly what you need from JaVale if you’re the Warriors. He had 13 points in eight minutes in the first quarter!

The NBA is a better place with JaVale McGee in it.
