SALTY DOG
NBA ROLE: VETERAN CENTER
France’s Ian (pronounced “yahn”) Mahinmi: steady, veteran (backup) center; never-ending hustle, offensive rebounding and defensive energy define Ian’s game – it took him a few years to hone in on what he’s good at but now, he’s well-established a basketball identity; offensively, Ian is slightly above ‘found money’ status – strong screen setter, gets nice positioning before releasing righty hooks on the baseline, is confident taking midrangers; poor foul shooter, slow release; huge buzz on the glass, strong & quick: never assumes a shot is going in, alters his body for tip-ins; able to produce when called upon
