Sat Dec 29 2012 | 22:13 | Mahinmi solid, scores 13 pts in Pacers' loss |
Ian Mahinmi came off the bench for 13 points, two boards and three blocks in 19 minutes on Saturday. |
Ian took advantage of Roy Hibbert's struggles but that's not a recipe for long-term success -- Indy gave Hibbert a four-year, $58 million extension this summer and a timeshare isn't realistic. |

Wed Dec 19 2012 | 00:14 | Ian Mahinmi scores a season-high 14 |
Ian Mahinmi scored a season-high 14 points in a 93-98 loss to the Bucks on Tuesday, adding five rebounds and one steal in 20 minutes. |
He scored 14 points in his last five games combined, so he's got a long way to go to have value in fantasy leagues. He'd need Roy Hibbert to miss time to garner our attention. |

Wed Dec 5 2012 | 21:49 | Ian Mahinmi scores 12 points in win |
Ian Mahinmi came off the bench for a season-high 12 points to go along with four rebounds and a block in 19 minutes on Wednesday. |
He'll have some decent nights, especially with Roy Hibbert struggling with his shot, but doesn't get enough minutes to be a real fantasy option. |

Wed Nov 28 2012 | 01:48 | Ian Mahinmi goes for 11 & 6 in win |
Ian Mahinmi came off the Pacers bench for a season-high 11 points, six rebounds, a steal and a block in 30 minutes of Tuesday's win over the Lakers. |
Roy Hibbert was in foul trouble, allowing Mahinmi to get extended run tonight. But as long as Hibbert is healthy, Mahinmi should be ignored in fantasy leagues. |

Sat Oct 20 2012 | 21:52 | Ian Mahinmi nearly double-doubles off bench |
Ian Mahinmi had a nice game off Indiana's bench on Saturday, scoring 13 points with nine rebounds and one block in 24 minutes. |
The Pacers gave up Darren Collison to pry Mahinmi away from the Mavericks, an unheralded deal that could pay dividends as the season grinds along. He can backup both PF and C, but isn't likely to have value in average leagues while David West and Roy Hibbert are healthy -- note that D-West was held out tonight as a precaution. |

Sat Oct 13 2012 | 10:24 | Ian Mahinmi terrific in 24 minutes for Pacers |
Ian Mahinmi started and played 24 minutes on Friday, piling up 17 points, eight rebounds, three steals and two blocks, all with zero turnovers. |
Roy Hibbert was rested so that Mahinmi could get some more playing time, and he didn't disappoint. The underrated big man is a major upgrade for Indiana's second unit, but he's an unlikely fantasy asset while Hibbert is healthy. |

Mahinmi is drawing interest from a number of teams and reportedly already had a "top-three wish list" for destinations he'd like to go.

Mahinmi "really" wants to stay with the Mavericks, but did admit that he understands the NBA is a business. Mahinmi should draw interest from a litany of teams looking for a legitimate backup center, as he averaged 5.8 points and 4.8 rebounds in 18.7 minutes per game this season. |

Ian Mahinmi returned (personal) to the Mavericks on Tuesday and played eight foul plagued minutes, notching just two points and one rebound |
Mahinmi had missed his last two and may take a few games to get back into the groove. He could be a solid source of boards and blocks when he's getting minutes but at this point leave him on the wire. |

Ian Mahimni is expected to rejoin the Mavs in time for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies following the birth of his child. |

Ian Mahinmi started for injured Brendan Haywood (knee) on Friday, scoring 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting with nine rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in 34 minutes. |
This is on the high-end of what Mahinmi has usually produced as a starter, but if you're desperate at center you could do worse. |

Sat Mar 17 2012 | 23:42 | Mahinmi quiet in another start for Mavericks |
Ian Mahinmi had seven points, eight rebounds and one steal in a start at center on Saturday, filling in for Brendan Haywood (sprained knee). |
Haywood is out at least five games but Mahinmi is a poor fantasy option. In five starts this season he's averaged eight points, seven rebounds, 1.0 steal and 0.6 blocks in 26 minutes per game. What you see is what you'll get. |

Ian Mahinmi started again for injured Brendan Haywood (ankle) on Friday, scoring 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting with seven rebounds and a block in 23 minutes. |
Mahinmi played well in a tough matchup with a less than 100 percent DeMarcus Cousins, but has been a mixed bag in his spot-starts this week. Haywood worked up a good sweat in warmups tonight and has a good shot at playing on Saturday against the Warriors. |
