Clinton Renard "Mikki" Moore[1] (born November 4, 1975 in Orangeburg, South Carolina) is an American professional basketball player, currently playing in the NBA.
Moore went undrafted following a career at the University of Nebraska, where he left as the all-time leader in blocked shots. He is considered a journeyman player, having played for 7 NBA franchises, including the Detroit Pistons, the Atlanta Hawks, the Boston Celtics, the New Jersey Nets, the Utah Jazz and the Los Angeles Clippers and the Seattle SuperSonics. He has also had stints playing overseas as well as other professional leagues in the U.S. such as the CBA, and NBDL, where he played for the Roanoke Dazzle. Most notably, he enjoyed All-NBDL 1st Team and NBDL Defensive Player of the Year honors during the 2002-2003 season.[2]
On June 27, 2006 he was traded by the Sonics to the Nets in exchange for a 2009 second round draft pick. Following a season ending ACL injury to center Nenad Krstic, Moore has recently been called upon to play major minutes and is easily having one of the best years of his NBA career. He has averaged 8.2 ppg and 5.2 rpg on 63.6% shooting through 46 games, 22 of them he started.[3]
