JaVale McGee will NOT be coming to the Celtics. The sides couldn’t reach agreement on a contract.

Celtics deal w/ JaVale McGee has fallen through, sources told ESPN. Celtics wanted team option for next season, McGee wanted player option.

This is beyond confusing to me because Philadelphia is on the hook for $12 million no matter what. What does it matter whose option it is? If McGee doesn’t want to be in Boston next year, they can just cut him. No harm, no foul.
I guess in the end, this was a very JaVale experience. The dude can’t even figure out how to be a free agent.
