Over the years, JaVale McGee has established himself as one of the most productive role players in the league. The three-time champion is coming off one of his greatest seasons with the Phoenix Suns.
In the mere 15.8 MPG he played, McGee averaged 9.2 PPG, 6.7 RPG, and 1.1 BPG, shooting a highly efficient 62.9% from the field. Nonetheless, the seven-foot center decided to join Luka Doncic in Dallas during his free agency, signing a 3-year $17M deal with the Mavericks, marking his return to the franchise after a one-year stint with them in 2016.
Before his recent signing, McGee spent most of his years getting traded from one organization to another. The 34-year-old was packaged as a viable asset in several trades. One can only imagine his fans having a variety of his merchandise, courtesy of him playing on 8-teams over his 14-seasons.
Thus McGee in a different NBA uniform annually wasn’t unusual for the 2K fans. Nonetheless, the veteran center wasn’t too happy with his recent look in the basketball simulation video game.
JaVale McGee hilariously tweets his new stills for NBA 2K23.
With almost every annual edition, NBA 2K brings its share of debates. Whether it’s the player ratings or visuals, there are plenty of queries awaiting Ronnie 2K, with fans thronging him on social media even before the official release dates are announced.
However, this time it was an NBA player himself expressing his grievances. Mavs center JaVale McGee did appear to have certain reservations with his face scans from the upcoming edition of NBA 2K23, even tweeting about it, with fans having hilarious reactions.
