Auriantal first attended Dawson College in Westmount, Quebec. He then transferred to the Globe Institute of Technology in [[New York City, United States. After one year, he began attending NYIT in the same city, where he played his final two seasons of basketball.[2]

Auriantal played with the Montreal Matrix of the American Basketball Association (ABA) from 2005 to 2006. On February 4, 2006, he was named ABA Player of the Week.[3] Later that month, he was named to the 2006 All-Star Game along with former NBA All-Star Tim Hardaway.[4] Auriantal began competing for BC Körmend of the Nemzeti Bajnokság I/A in Hungary in 2008. On October 18, he made his debut and scored a season-best 17 points vs EnterNet-NTE.[5] The guard moved to the Montreal Jazz of the National Basketball League of Canada (NBL) for the 2012-13 season. He posted a season-high 36 points in a loss to the London Lightning on December 7, 2012 and, by the end of the season, led the league in steals, averaging 2.15 per game.[6][7]

Auriantal studied business at the New York Institute of Technology for his final two years of college. However, he returned to Montreal after graduating. His mother, Emilie Louissaint, said, "He wanted to come home to his mother."[4] Manix is from a family of seven children. He has three brothers that have also played professional basketball at a relatively high level. Ralph, Hennssy, and Rodwins, all played college basketball on a scholarship in the United States and earned a degree, like Manix.
