Damn way too young, one of the funnest players to watch highlights of. Wish his family the best.

Back in the day everytime we swatted a bounce in beer pong, we screamed Mutombo as loud as possible.

Never really saw him play, but dude was just legendary. I don't think any other player has reached that level of public fame from mostly defensive play.
