JaVale McGee, Denver Nuggets center and everyone’s favorite free spirit, continues to be one of the best follows on social media of any current NBA player. Whether he’s showing off his newest bucket hat, promoting the importance of drinking plenty of water with his Jug Life movement, or just sharing glimpses of his training and daily life, McGee is a constant source of entertainment online.
This week, it looks like he is making the most of the offseason and soaking up some rays on the beach. Never one to miss an opportunity for a great Instagram photo, McGee almost got in over his head proving he’s still among the NBA’s elite when it comes to giving fans access to his life off the court:
I know there is some disagreement among Nuggets fans about McGee. Some fans think his off-the-court antics and mental lapses during games overshadow his contributions on the court. And others don’t see him fitting into the Nuggets plans long-term, especially now that it looks like Brian Shaw is here to stay. But I still believe McGee can be a difference maker for the Nuggets and I’m eager to see what he can bring to the team when he returns from his injury for the upcoming 2014-15 season.
You have to admit, if nothing else, there’s never a dull moment when he’s around.
