Yante Maten is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on August 14, 1996 in Pontiac, Michigan, United States. Yante Khaaliq Djiyann Maten, born August 14, 1996, is an American professional basketball player who plays for the Maine Red Claws in the NBA G League. He played college basketball at the University of Georgia. Maten, a 6’7″ power forward hailing from Pontiac in Michigan, was named SEC Player-of-the Year by the Associated Press.

Maten, who was not selected in the 2018 NBA Draft, signed a two-way deal with the Miami Heat of National Basketball Association (NBA), on July 29, 2018. He was to split his time between the Heat, and the Sioux Falls Skyforce, their NBA G League affiliate. Maten was the NBA G League Player-of-the-Month for December 2018. Maten was signed by the Heat to a standard NBA contract on April 7. The Miami Heat waived Maten on July 29, 2019.

After a breakout sophomore year where he was named second-team All- Southeastern Conference (SEC) by the league’s coaches, Maten enjoyed a strong individual junior season, marred by a knee injury and the Bulldogs’ mediocre 19–14 record. After averaging 18.2 points and 6.8 rebounds per game, he was named first-team All-SEC by the leagues’ coaches and second-team by the Associated Press. He was also named as a finalist for the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award for the nation’s top center (despite starting the season on the watch list for the Karl Malone Award for top power forward).

Maten declared his eligibility to the 2017 NBA draft, without the assistance of an agent. This left Maten open to the possibility that he could return home for his senior year. After working out with NBA teams, Maten decided to return home for his senior year in order to improve his draft position.
