Dikembe Mutombo

Not racing related, but he was a very popular figure in the sports world. Very likeable and did a ton of charity work.

In the man's own words No no no



Loved him as a part of the Sixers back in the day RIP.

I didn't expect that 2000-2001 Sixers team to beat the juggernaut that was the Lakers, but I was proud of them for not only making the Finals with AI and Deke, but for actually winning a game against the juggernaut that was the Lakers. The powers that be in Philly tried quite a few times to find another big man that could play well with Iverson, but Deke ended up being his best tag team partner in terms of postseason success.

Thank you for the entertainment, the memories, and what you did for others, farewell, and godspeed, Dikembe.

He was a defensive monster, truly underrated.

Great basketball player. Greater humanitarian. Gone far, far too soon. RIP
