Terance Mann is the oldest player 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.”
For Mann — who turns 29 on Oct. 18, four days before the regular-season opener in Charlotte — being the old head is a new experience. But it’s one that so far he’s relishing, and quickly taking to.
