NBA Trade Rumors: 7 Veteran big men LA Clippers can pursue to replace Mason Plumlee
JaVale McGee, Sacramento Kings
Another possible option that could emerge for the LA Clippers is JaVale McGee. He’s currently with the Sacramento Kings but isn’t getting much run with the team so far. He’s only appeared in six games for the Kings, averaging eight points and three rebounds on 64 percent shooting from the field.
McGee has had a long career in the NBA and has championship experience (dating back to his time with the Golden State Warriors) and while he’s toward the latter portion of his career, he could play a small role for the Clippers. He may not be the first option for the Clippers but he could be a cheap option if the Kings feel they have enough at the center position.
