Mazen Mneimneh
Sporting Al Riyadi Beirut (LBL) strengthened their roster with addition of experienced 34-year old ex-international swingman Mazen Mneimneh (192-86). It is actually his comeback to Beirut as he has played here before. Mneimneh played last season at Atlas Ferzol (LBL). In three games he recorded very impressive stats: 17.0ppg, 4.7rpg and 1.0apg.
The previous (18-19) season Mneimneh played at Byblos Sporting Club where in 16 LBL games he averaged 8.9ppg, 3.3rpg and 1.0spg.
He was also a member of Lebanese international program for some years. Mneimneh played for Lebanese Senior National Team between 2006 and 2013 and previously for U18 National Team in 2004.
He represented Lebanon at the West Asia Basketball Championships in Tehran (Iran) seven years ago.
Mneimneh has spent his entire career in Lebanon playing for five other teams: Tadamon, Anibal, Champville, Al Moutahed and CS Antonine.
The list of the past achievements is quite long as among others Mneimneh played in the final of Lebanese League in 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2015.
The scouts decsribe him following way:
A true Asian basketball rising star. An excellent shooter and penetrator, who can score in lots of ways. Has also great leadership on the court and can defend well. Needs to adapt his game to senior level, but his rapid improving skills could allow him to become an NBA level player in few years.
