Mutumbo touched so many lives, Masai is right calling him a giant.
Rip dike
RIP Mutumbo 🙏🏿
I didn't even know we lost him! I'm heartbroken.
They snubbed him from the Top 75 list too
Growing up he seemed larger than life. His presence, voice and thoughtful words. He was the first person I'd heard of using his wealth to build a hospital in their hometown. Truly a role model in sports.
What a warm tribute by Masai
Mutombo was one of the greatest defensive players of all time, but somehow he managed to even top that when it came to his dedication to helping and caring for others, especially for the people in his home country of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
😢☹️🫡
How we lose Mutombo? That’s wild.
To see all nba fans share only positive message about mutumbo tells you all you need to know what kind of person he was on and off the court
He wears his heart on his sleeves. Not many people like him in the league. Hope he stays with the raptors forever
He was a proud African and he paved the way for so many players
As a country that knows Congo 🇨🇩, I fondly remember 25 years ago when my dad took me to your grandma's house and said he had a surprise. I had no idea I would meet you that day, and you told me, "I’ll see you one day." I wish I could see you again, but for now, rest in peace, big Dikembe.
He was a modern messiah for the people of the Congo. What Dirk did for Europeans coming to the NBA, Dikembe and Hakeem did for Africa
Let it out buddy 😂
Ujiri deserves justice for how he was treated
He looks like Milwaukee Bucks version Ray Allen
Humanity lost one of the greatest humans today. RIP Dikembe.
Boricua Hispanic India n black iam.. I have a rookie card from him , he was a great player n he did good things to building a hospital in Africa, he was a hero. I hope many player be like him. Mikembe mutonbo the hall of fame.
