Dribbling out of the neighborhood
Lakers center Javale McGee is shooting his shot in Encino, where his Mediterranean-style home of four years is on the market for $3.3 million.
The two-time NBA champion isn’t the only big name tied to the place. He bought it from Grammywinning singer Marc Anthony in 2015 for $2.425 million.
Ideal for entertaining, the two-story home has 6,263 square feet of indoor-outdoor living space, a movie theater, a recording studio and a wet bar. An even larger bar lies in the backyard next to a swimming pool, spa and gazebo.
Past a Saltillo tile patio with a fountain, the interior goes heavy on Spanish style. A sweeping staircase of wrought iron anchors
the foyer, and arched doorways lead to common rooms with tile floors and dark hardwood accents.
The master suite, one of six bedrooms and nine bathrooms, expands to include dual closets and a chic bathroom with a raised spa tub. A private balcony sits off the master bedroom.
Other amenities include a gym, a yoga studio and a chef ’s kitchen. Columns line the family room, which has a fireplace.
McGee, 31, has spent time with the Wizards, Nuggets, 76ers, Warriors and Lakers since being drafted in 2008. In 2017 and 2018, he won back-to-back NBA titles while playing for Golden State.
He is signed with the Lakers for another two years after returning as a free agent this offseason.
