Muere Dikembe Mutombo, el gigante del tapón y la caridad de la NBA

Dikembe Mutombo, leyenda del baloncesto y sinónimo universal de los tapones y el juego defensivo, murió este lunes en Atlanta, Georgia, a los 58 años. El exjugador congoleño de 2,18 metros, miembro del salón de la fama Naismith, falleció a causa de un tumor cerebral contra el que batallaba desde 2022. “Fue una persona que simplemente desbordó la realidad.
