|Video| #NBA JaVale McGee Benched for Backboard Alley-Oop To Himself

With the now 1-12 Wizards trailing by six in the third quarter, JaVale McGee found himself all alone for a breakaway dunk. And what did he choose to do? Throw it off the backboard and oop himself.


coach Flip Saunders was not impressed or amused by this and actually benched McGee for the final nine minutes of the Wizards’ eventual loss to the Rockets.

“Apparently, if you get a fastbreak and throw it off backboard in the third quarter and you’re 1-11, you’re not supposed to do stuff like that,” McGee said after the game.
