Dikembe Mutombo was in attendance at last night’s Nuggets-Clippers game, and during the halftime festivities was called upon to assist Denver mascot Rocky with a trampoline dunk. It all went smoothly for Rocky until Mutombo pulled the proverbial rug out from under the Nuggets mascot, as the 4-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year pulled the ball away from Rocky’s grasp, sending him crashing to the floor. Of course Mutombo finished the play off with his patented finger wag, because Dikembe Mutombo is the best.
Retired or not, Dikembe Mutombo will not be scored upon, least of all by some dude in a goofy mascot outfit.
