Mutombo will be a difference maker on a Jam team that has been struggling in the D-League’s Western Conference.  His veteren leadership and tremendous work ethic will  be extremely valuable on and off the court.  Mutombo has built a reputation as a high I.Q. basketball athlete that truly understands how to play the game.  His offensive versatility and willingness to take personal pride on the defensive end of the floor makes him an asset at any level.

Mutombo has been a client of Geoff Golden Basketball for the past 2 years.  I’ve had the pleasure of helping prepare Patrick for his time in Greece and now with an exciting opportunity in the NBA Development League.  Best of luck Pat…I’m definitely going to miss the tireless workouts on the court but may miss the basketball conversation/debates even more.
