Dikembe Mutombo, the gentle giant of a man, would go on to reach the Basketball Hall of Fame for his collegiate and professional success, but his large footprint leaves a legacy far beyond the court, USA TODAY Sports' Stephen Borelli writes. Mutombo was a global ambassador for the NBA and a leader in humanitarian efforts for his home continent. He was a loving father, a model teammate and an advocate for making kids’ lives better. Borelli spoke with Jerome Williams, a Hoyas power forward from 1994 to 1996 and who was mentored by Mutombo, and also Mike Riley, who coached Mutombo for four years at Georgetown, to relive Mutombo's memory at the link in our bio. #DikembeMutombo #NBA #Georgetown #basketball
