While it comes natural to hate all things Georgetown, Mutombo’s humanitarian work makes him easy to respect. Best wishes to the big guy for a speedy recovery.

One of the highest quality humans in pro sports in recent memory. Does tons of important charity work in Africa, and is extremely approachable and nice in person.

I don’t care where he went to school, he’s still one of my all-time favorite NBA players.

Want to see him beat this thing and do this:

Most people grow out of who they were as teenagers and young adults. Thankfully.

Always liked Mutombo. I think he is the only Georgetown big man I can say that about.

Prayers for the big guy. Hope he gets well soon.

 

[SUMinistry]

His Geico commercial was the only one I could stand maybe ever. But besides, that, seems like a great human being and hopes he gets better soon.

I do take the first part back now that I think about it. Living it Cincinnati, I have to get my cold cuts.

Hope he recovers! Always seemed like a good guy, despite his choice of schools.

Definitely wishing him a great recovery. I have met him a few times in the last 6 years. I have a picture of him and I at a company holiday party. Great guy who supports great causes.

I should post it, it's ridiculous. I felt like Gary Coleman (RIP). And I'm 6 foot.

Yeah, it's amazing how 14" doesn't seem like much if you hold your hands 14" apart. But, how crazy it is when a person is 14" taller.
