Ian Mahinmi says injury won't require surgery

While Ian Mahinmi is upset he had to leave Team France, he’s encouraged that his shoulder injury won’t require surgery.

“No surgery, no injections,” Mahinmi told VigilantSports.com Thursday. “So it’s not as bad as everybody thought it would be."

While Mahinmi did not provide a timetable, he hopes it will only keep him away from basketball activities for a few weeks.
