Strengths:[/u] Mutombo blocks shots. He blocks shots very well. He is an excellent defender with great timing. Will challenge every player at the rim. He is a great, fundamental rebounder. Though he isn't known for scoring, he is sufficient on the inside and has a reliable hook shot/short baseline jumper.
Weaknesses:[/u] He isn't very mobile, and though he has the height, he won't be outmuscling opponents. Though he may be solid down low, he will never be a reliable scorer, or even an option for that matter. He is a bit turnover prone and anymore than a dribble or two, the ball will probably be stolen immediately. Overall, he's not very athletic and won't be doing much offensively.
Scout's Take:[/u] Has the potential to be a cornerstone defensive/rebounding specialist on a team for many year's to come. Won't ever be an offensive threat, but could be one of the greatest defensive Centers to ever play the game. Could possibly go #1.
