R.I.P. Dikembe Mutumbo



A man who gave so much to his people. A gentle giant off the court and once a Knick. Dead at 58 due to brain cancer.

    Fuuuck one of the all time great humans and great personalities to ever play in the league. RIP Mt Mutombo.

    After he made the finals with Philly in 2001 and NJ in 2003, I was ecstatic when he chose us in free agency before the 2003-04 season. 

    Seemed like one of the nicest people and all I heard about him after his playing career was his altruism. Rest in peace, Deke.

    damn man. He was such a cool person. Everyone loved Mount Mutumbo when I was in Jr. High/High School. The enduring image of him grabbing the last rebound in Game 5 of the Sonics/Nuggets series and crying tears of joy on the floor clutching the ball will forever be iconic. RIP.

  5. Absolutely devastating. Rest in Power. 🇨🇩✊🏾
