Ian Mahinmi Update - NBA Lockout Edition

The NBA lockout may be having a financial toll on some players, but not rising star Ian Mahinmi. He's recently signed with Le Havre back in his native country of France. This signals a return to his 'ancient' team, not surprisingly turning down multiple other offers in the process.

Beau match... beau match... beau match...

Le Havre ("the harbor") is a beautiful town right on the Normandy coast. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it gets plenty of tourists, including a bustling cruise industry that makes full use of its port. I'm sure Mahinmi will have no problem waiting out the lockout in these cozy and familiar surroundings as long as he has to in support of the players union. Because the only thing stronger than his bone-breaking fouls is his solidarity with his fellow players. Keep up the good work, Ian!
