Many big men in the NBA are looking to take lessons from the great Hakeem Olajuwon. Some have already done so like Amare Stoudemire, and he's already pumped for next season after learning.
Now Denver Nuggets center JaVale McGee is looking to take advantage of the opportunity, looking to practice with Olajuwon.
Olajuwon had some high praises for the young center.
“No question, I see him as another star,” Olajuwon said in an interview with FOX 26 Sports. “That guy should dominate the league.
“He has tremendous talent. I give him all these moves and he can finish and he’s already skilled. So now just show him how to use that skill to (get) to the next level.”
The question is, can McGee do it? The most things he's been known for are stupid mistakes he's done on the court. Let's hope he can put it to good use learning from one of the greats.
