Timeline
After returning to Kenya, Maina moved back with his parents in Buruburu. In March 2003, he was assaulted by two men on the street who stabbed and hit him with a stone. Maina recovered, after spending three weeks in a hospital with a broken jaw and other injuries. Several years later, he also contracted tuberculosis, which led him to bouts of depression. As of 2016, Maina still lived in the area.
After the film, Maina decided to stay in the United States to pursue college opportunities, under the advice of McAdoo, with whom he was staying. He played his first full season at Barton County Community College in Great Bend, Kansas. Although he started as a bench player, Maina became a starter halfway through the season. After one year, he transferred to Miami-Dade Kendall Community College to be closer to McAdoo, where he also played as a starter and set several school records for blocked shots. Eventually, McAdoo contacted Jeff Price, head coach of Lynn University in Boca Raton, Florida. As a result, Maina received a basketball scholarship from 1997 to 1999. His coach would not allow him to use the 'Jimmy Dolan Shake and Bake' move in competition games. Maina still holds the Lynn University record for most blocks in a single game (11), which he achieved against Barry University on December 7, 1998. During the 1997-98 season, his team reached the NCAA D-II semifinals, with Price praising "his timing and ability to block shots".
Charles Gitonga Maina was born in the Buruburu neighborhood of Nairobi, Kenya. His father was an auditor with a telecommunications firm and his mother was a nurse.

In 1991, Maina won the 1991 Nairobi Slam Dunk Championship. Although he originally wanted to study computers and business at the University of Nairobi, Maina decided to pursue basketball instead.
Charles Gitonga Maina (born 1976) is a 6'10" Kenyan-born former actor and basketball player best known for his co-starring role in the 1994 film The Air Up There.
