After dominant G League season, Georgia's Yante Maten called up to NBA

Georgia Bulldog great Yante Maten won SEC Player of the Year in his final season in Athens, but that wasn’t enough to guarantee him a spot in rotation for the Miami Heat. Maten has been under a two way contract for the Miami Heat and their G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce. Maten has yet to make his NBA debut, despite being called up several times to the Heat this season.

Maten has been dominant for the Skyforce. He averages 24 points per game, grabs 9+ rebounds, all while shooting an efficient 54% on the season. Take a look at highlights from his recent dominant performance:

Maten hopes games like this can catch the Heat’s attention.
