i want him in the rotation
MAMUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Goga is a nba player
They put 4 pictures of Mamu in there like we wouldn't notice
The guy on the top right is the coach, right?
That's why he gets a pass for the bear.
I like Mamu, but I really think he needs to improve a lot on finishing at the rim and defending the paint.
Mamu will prove to be a strong addition as a rotation player. Big body bruiser, good BB IQ, good passer and decent shot.
Everyone thinks everyone on the roster will be in the rotation. An indicator of Mamu's role is the fact that he was only signed for one year. He'll be a deep bench garbage time player, and an occasional change of pace.
mamu had a lot of PT once the Spurs were full throttle tank mode. he won't see anywhere near the same amount of minutes in the upcoming season, barring a slew of injuries.
TBH, Mamu's deal kind of firmly puts him in the camp of possible cuts. He'll need to have a solid camp and pre-season, I'm rooting for him.
Bigs:
Wembanyama
Collins
Sochan
Bassey
Barlow
Mamukelashvili
I'd be very surprised if he was cut. I'm also unsure why so many swear he'll never be in the rotation. Have you looked at this big corps? Even aside from lack of experience and current skill, three of them had injury concerns last year.
I don't disagree, but of all the contracts remaining on this team (now that Stevens is gone), Mamu's is the easiest to waive and swallow. That doesn't mean he is the most obvious to be cut (because that would be Birch) but being the one guy on a one-year, minimum deal doesn't exactly scream job security.
I like Mamu as the 3rd C on the roster, but that's just me. If Barlow significantly outplays him in camp/pre-season or even early in the season during Barlow's call-ups, I can definitely see a scenario where Mamu is waived to make room for Dom's full deal.
I don't think the team will cut young developing players especially to keep more expensive players who aren't needed just because they are expensive.
Excited for Mamu. He might not be on the roster next year, but these cerebral Boris Diaw type bigs always are intriguing. You can def see a path for him in the NBA as a key bench cog. At the very least he pushes Sochan’s development along.
Looks like he had a good game versus Lithuania. Just goes to show how uber NBA players tend to be against other compe ion. It wasn't so much that he played well -- he's played well in the NBA. It was how agile he looked compared to other players on the floor.
between mamu, cissoko, et al, im losing track of all the boris diaw's we have
Great article, great kid. Loved what I saw from him last year one of the highlights of our tanking down the stretch.
Plays with a lot of swag, don’t sleep on MAMUUUUU!!!
Mamu drops 21/7/1 on 60/33/100 in Georgia loss
Guess his name is Alexander
Mamu was looking really solid those last few weeks of the tank season. Will be interesting to see how he fits in

The cutting routes to the basket are next level. Mamu shows some nice athleticism and hustle. Pretty good shot from range.
Also lol at the one play where Luka Donicic plays zero defense
Who is al ?
