Nicolas Lake Scott "Nick" Minnerath (born August 11, 1988) is an American professional basketball player for Avtodor Saratov of the VTB United League. He played college basketball for Jackson College and the University of Detroit Mercy.
Minnerath attended Nauset Regional High School in North Eastham, Massachusetts. After playing sparingly as a junior, just two games into his senior year, he broke his leg and missed the rest of the season.
In his freshman season at Jackson Community College, Minnerath finished runner-up in the Western Conference’s Player of the Year award after averaging 22.8 points and 9.1 rebounds, including setting the school record with 42 points in a game against Kirkland C.C. Minnerath made 15 2-pointers and 4 3-pointers in the victory.
In his sophomore season, he finished 19th in the nation in points per game (21.0), 16th in free throw percentage (82 %) and 15th in blocks per game (2.24). A 1,000-point scorer at the JUCO level, he also earned back-to-back Michigan Community College Athletic Association (MCCAA) All-Region honors as well as first team All-Western Conference accolades. He capped off an impressive two-year career at Jackson by being named a NJCAA Division II third team All-American.
In 2010, he transferred to Detroit where he started every game in his first year, finishing the 2010–11 season with a hot stretch, as he had six 20-point games starting on January 1, 2011. In 33 games, he averaged 11.2 points and 4.8 rebounds in 27.6 minutes per game.
Minnerath redshirted his senior year after playing just five games before a knee injury ended his season. In those five games, he averaged 12.0 points and 4.0 rebounds in 23.2 minutes per game.
In his redshirted senior season, he was named to the 2013 All-Horizon League first team. He was also named to the NABC District 12 second team and was one of 64 outgoing seniors to be invited to the 2013 Portsmouth Invitational Tournament. In 33 games, he averaged 14.6 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 29.6 minutes per game.
