JaVale McGee News, Rumors, Updates - Sacramento Kings | FOX Sports

Strong defensive showing off bench McGee scored six points (3-5 FG) while adding 10 rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal in 14 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 95-80 win over the Wizards.

Impact With Deandre Ayton playing only 24 minutes in a game the Suns led by 27 at halftime, McGee was able to take full advantage of his opportunities, recording double-digit boards for the ninth time this season. The 34-year-old's production has been impressive this season on a per-minute basis, but he didn't see a significant increase in his workload even when Ayton was sidelined by an ankle injury in January, so McGee's fantasy utility is usually limited to being a bargain option for rounding out a DFS roster.

Coming off bench Sunday McGee isn't starting Sunday's game against the Spurs.

Impact McGee will be available following a two-game absence due to a knee injury.

McGee is averaging 9.3 points and 6.4 rebounds in 13.9 minutes per game when coming off the bench this season.

Set to play Sunday McGee (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Duane Rankin of AZCentral.com reports.

Impact After missing the last two games, McGee will be back to availability and could find himself in the starting five with Deandre Ayton (ankle) expected to miss another contest. In four previous starts this month, McGee averaged 8.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 19.0 minutes.

Questionable against Spurs McGee (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Spurs, Gerald Bourguet of GoPHNX.com reports.

Impact McGee has been unavailable for each of the last two games due to a sore left knee. If he remains out Sunday, Bismack Biyombo and Jalen Smith should continue to handle increased roles.

Remains out vs. Minnesota McGee (knee) will remain out for Friday's game against Minnesota, Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports reports.

Impact The Suns have virtually the same injury report as Wednesday's game against Utah, so they'll be without McGee, Deandre Ayton (ankle) and Jae Crowder (wrist). As a result, expect Bismack Biyombo and Jalen Smith to once again mop up most of the minutes at center.

Ruled out Wednesday McGee has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Jazz due to a sore left knee, Duane Rankin of AZCentral.com reports.

Impact It's very possible the Suns are just building in some rest for the veteran big man, who's started the last four games with Deandre Ayton (ankle) sidelined. Ayton will also remain out Wednesday, so Bismack Biyombo and Jalen Smith figure to handle all of the minutes at center.

Compiles 20 points in relief McGee produced 20 points (9-10 FG, 2-4 FT), six rebounds and one block in 15 minutes during Sunday's 135-108 win over the Pistons.

Impact McGee saw additional time after Deandre Ayton (ankle) exited with an injury. It was good news for the Flint native, who had several friends and family in attendance. There's currently no word on the severity of Ayton's injury, but McGee would be the first man up against the Spurs Monday night if Ayton cannot go.
