Yeah I saw that at one point he was living in Jacksonville FL. I didn't think he was his son either. I thought possibly a relative. Maybe his nephew or something. Then I came across a couple of articles like this one that said: "Dikembe MutomboThe 18-year NBA veteran has a son, Bretner, who plays for the Georgia Stars U16 team. Bretner, a class of 2021 recruit, isn’t as tall as his 7 foot, 2 inch dad (6’9), but is still growing. The elder Mutombo won the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award four times and was an eight-time All-Star."At Peach Jam, Players Arrive With NBA & NFL LegaciesI think If he was his son, he would have heard more about him. Still wonder if he is related in someway to Dikembe Mutombo? •Lincoln Prep Academy has a pair of young prospects with potential. Jalen Carruth, the son of Rashaad Carruth, and Bretner Mutombo, the nephew of Dikembe Mutombo, both caught our eye. Carruth is a 6-foot-4 wing that can shoot it, while Mutombo showed potential as a rim runner, shot blocker and rebounder. 247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/Article/Holiday-Hoopsgiving-Brandon-Boston-Chance-Moore-JT-Thor-among-standouts-125384348/Feels like Georgetown should offer and pursue all the Mutombo's. Son's, Nephew's, cousin's whatever...

I have been watching Class of 2021 four-star power forward Jabari Smith play for over a year now. Last year at this time, you could see the talent level. He was somewhere in the 6-foot-7 range with long arms, good athleticism, and he was comfortable putting the ball on the floor as well as shooting from three-point range. He had no high-major offers at the time. Fast forward a year, he stands closer to 6-foot-10 with an improved overall skill level. He’s now in double digits in high-major offers. If you read any coverage of the U-16 Team USA trials, most reviews were that he was the top player in attendance on opening night. The only hole in his game right now is his lack of strength, but that will come in time. Much like we have seen Walker Kessler’s recruitment take off out of Georgia over the past year, I predict we will see Smith’s take a very similar path with all the blue bloods getting involved. basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/mcdonald-s-nuggets-howard-s-potential-the-battle-for-boston-and-moreEvans: Jabari Smith has made the move. Back in April, I was not afraid to say it; I believed then that he was worthy of a top-five ranking. Others thought that I had jumped the gun a bit too soon, but after a strong showing on the adidas circuit this spring before then acting as a productive forward for the gold winning United States under-16 team last week, the time is now for Smith to receive his dues. Sure, he is not as productive as the four others above him in the rankings but whenever it comes to pure talent alone, the physical tangibles and knowing that his father, Jabari Smith Sr., has been there and done that as he played in the NBA for a few years and is mentoring him properly, Smith might be a bit too high for others but here, I know that he will prove us right. McDonald: Smith went from No. 33 overall all the way up to No. 5 overall. That's a tough jump for a prospect to make from outside of five-star range all the way into the top five. Smith is incredibly talented at 6-foot-9 with a well-round skill-set. I personally like to stay on the conservative side of moving guys up that much in one rankings update, but at the same time, I'm not sure we're wrong here. Smith has really high end potential. basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/rivals-rankings-week-roundtable-on-2021-rankings

2021 Guard Ryan Conway Talks Upcoming Georgetown Visit “I will take an unofficial visit to Georgetown December 3rd,” said Conway. “I haven’t watched them play too much but I have heard so many great things about them.” As a freshman in high school, college coaches aren’t able to reach out to Conway directly yet, but he told D1Vision on Tuesday that Dayton and Xavier have both shown interest.

Dallan Coleman has not had the best of springs on the travel circuit but he has been tremendous this week before suffering a blow to the face on Tuesday evening. Reminiscent some of former Michigan standout Jordan Poole, Coleman is not a high-flying athlete but rather a skilled and shifty scorer that wields an effortless jumper that can take over a game in an instant. He hit four 3s in his Tuesday afternoon contest but is also a prospect that can play on the ball thanks to his sound skillset and overall feel for the game. Shot makers are en vogue which makes the product out of Jacksonville that much more valuable. Recruitment: Things are relatively wide open as the local powers, Florida and Florida State, have already offered, as have Georgetown, Georgia Tech, Iowa State and Oklahoma State. basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/nike-top-100-mid-camp-first-teamDallan Coleman was in shot-making mode on Tuesday afternoon. The class of 2021 Floridian was dialed in from three and rarely missed a perimeter shot. The 6-foot-4 guard from West Nassau HS continued his three-point barrage that I saw from him a couple of weeks ago at Georgia Tech’s team camp. hoopseen.com/news/event/201906/big-time-players-shine-tuesday-nike-elite-100
