Mutumbo. His work off the court... wow. It's almost as everything he's done, he's doing for the sake of his country. Try to revitalize and rebuild it, I wish I could do that. If I had that sort of money or commitment, I would definitely be doing something similar. Other athletes, you rarely see that, or if anything, they only contribute through charity, nothing so hands-on.

Tim Duncan and Ray Allen are the first names that come to mind.

The first name that came to my mind was Duncan. Doesn't make an ass out of himself at night clubs, or trying to make rap albums, doesn't get arrested, has a solid marriage, shows respect to everything and everyone...

Mutombo, Hakeem, and DWade come to mind.

Lamar Odom, one of the most positive guys when he probably has the most reason not to be.

LOL at D-Wade and D-12, it's a insult to the respected players to even bring in their names.

Is there a stat to figure this out?! That would make it alot easier to find out who's the most respected player off the court!

RutgersBJJ · Post #37 » by **RutgersBJJ** » Sat Mar 28, 2009 7:37 pm

it is Mutumbo by far, I can't believe any other name is even being brought up.
