"Terance Mann is the oldest playe r on what may end up the NBA's youngest team."
"Brooklyn brought Mann back home - he grew up just blocks from where Barclays Center now sits - partly to be the steadying seasoned veteran for this inexperienced roster."
""It's a lot different for me, just being the oldest guy on the team. Usually I'm one of the youngest," said Mann. "So, just a different outlook on everything, just trying to lead these young guys on what to do, what not to do.""
Terance Mann is the oldest player on a Nets roster that could be the NBA's youngest team. Brooklyn re-signed Mann partly because he grew up just blocks from Barclays Center and can provide steady veteran presence for an inexperienced group. Mann will turn 29 on Oct. 18, four days before the season opener in Charlotte. He describes the role as a different outlook, transitioning from usually being one of the youngest to being the oldest, and he intends to lead the younger players by example and guidance. He is relishing the new role and adapting quickly.
