Golden State Warriors center JaVale McGee, is on the verge of ending up in Shaqtin' A Fool yet again.
In the following video posted by BUCKETS co-host Rob Perez, McGee failed to capitalize on the offensive end after a big block:

After the block on the Los Angeles Lakers' Ivica Zubac, McGee got the ball and may have been a little too excited. Instead of passing it to one of the guards, the 30-year-old opted to run the break himself. And as a player not known for his ball-handling skills, the play did not end too well.
McGee fumbled the ball and recorded a turnover. Their coach Steve Kerr, who's a bit animated when his players make mistakes, reacted in his typical way:

It's one of many “lowlights” that McGee has recorded throughout the course of his career. These clips have made him infamous and even developed a reputation for being a clumsy, if not terrible, basketball player.
Shaqtin' A Fool, NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal's gag reel, has kept a close eye on McGee, waiting for him to make another mistake.
Though O'Neal meant to harm, McGee took offense and called out Shaq a few times. Some accused the latter of bullying mainly because McGee has ended up on the gag reel several times even on very little mistakes on the court.
Yet eventually, McGee has seen less Shaqtin' A Fool airtime. This is perhaps partly due to his transfer to the Warriors, a well-coached team that had utilized his athleticism. For the season, McGee is averaging 4.5 points and 2.3 rebounds in 9.2 minutes of action per game.
