Chris Mihm
Christopher Steven Mihm (born July 16, 1979) is an American former professional basketball player who played nine seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA). After playing college basketball for the Texas Longhorns, the center was drafted with the seventh overall pick in the 2000 NBA draft by the Chicago Bulls.
Mihm was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Gary and Nina Mihm and later moved to Texas. At the age of 14, he was ranked among Texas' top tennis players in his age group. His opponents included future US Open champion Andy Roddick and NFL quarterback Drew Brees, both of whom resided in the area.
Mihm played his college basketball at the University of Texas at Austin, where he was one of the top players in school history. In 2021, he ranked first on UT's all-time blocks list (264), second in double-doubles (47), and fourth in rebounds (945).
In the summer before his freshman year, Mihm spent time working out with San Antonio Spurs center David Robinson.
Mihm was picked seventh overall by the Chicago Bulls but was then traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Jamal Crawford. Mihm's debut game was played on October 31, 2000, in an 86–82 victory over the New Jersey Nets, where he played for three minutes and only recorded one block, one turnover and one foul.
During his rookie season, he started 43 of 59 games for the Cavs, but injuries caused him to miss the other 23. Mihm played 27 games before recording an assist. In his 28th game on February 19, 2001, Mihm recorded the first assist of his career in a 85–84 win over the Bulls. Mihm stayed with the Cavaliers for the first 3+1⁄2 seasons of his career, playing a total of 207 games for the club and averaging 7.1 points and 5.0 rebounds.
On December 15, 2003, Mihm was traded along with teammates Ricky Davis, Michael Stewart and a 2005 2nd-round draft pick to the Boston Celtics for Tony Battie, Kedrick Brown and Eric Williams. Mihm would only play for the Celtics for the remainder of the 2004–05 season, averaging 6.1 points and 5.1 rebounds in 54 games.
Mihm was traded on August 4, 2004, along with Chucky Atkins and Jumaine Jones to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Rick Fox, Gary Payton and a 2006 1st-round draft pick. Mihm would finish out his career with the Lakers although he did miss the entire 2006–07 season due to ankle injury. His best season with the team was the 2005–06 season right before his injury, where he averaged 10.2 points and 6.3 rebounds while starting in 56 of the 59 games he played.
