Mason Plumlee can be a punchline in some circles, but that should not be the case, as his play at Center has always been solid, though not star-making.
You don’t have to be a star to make it in the NBA, and Plumlee was already an eight-year veteran before he was traded to Charlotte, his fifth NBA team. A Hornet for 129 Games, Plumlee started them all, averaging 9 Points and 8.6 Rebounds per Game.
Charlotte traded Plumlee to the Los Angeles Clippers for their playoff run in 2023.
