Prior to a 117-85 beating at the hands of the Nuggets in Denver, a woman asked Lakers center JaVale McGee for his autograph. Not on a jersey of piece of paper, but on her baby.
Not one to disappoint, McGee walked over and gladly signed the baby’s onsie. We highly doubt he was the woman’s first choice, but leaving with an autograph beats not getting one at all.

Signing the baby wasn’t a good luck charm by any means. Not only did the Lakers get smoked, McGee scored just two points and added an assist and two rebounds during his 16 minutes of action.
