"I'm so excited, so excited," Mutombo said. "I'm really thrilled about becoming one of the great shot-blockers who has played this game. To see myself up with my brother Hakeem Olajuwon (http://www.realgm.com/src_playerfile/283/hakeem_olajuwon/), I think it's a great honor for me. To go into the history books as two African kings who came in and did something very special in this league, it is overwhelming to me and I think very significant."
