Ian Mahinmi: Active and available to play Wednesday

Mahinmi will be taking the court for the first time since Nov. 26, as he’s
finally back to full strength after dealing with some lingering issues in both
of his knees. Considering the extended absence, the Wizards will ease Mahinmi
back into the action, so at most, he could see playing time in the 10-to-12
minutes range. Once at full strength, Manhimi will operate as the team’s backup
center, which likely means decreased playing time for guys like Jason Smith and
Andrew Nicholson.
