The cultural disconnect was that drastic. France, because of its colonies, half the team is black. There was a serious disconnect between the players and the staff. When I was a rookie, we had 3 meetings: one to manage your money, one for security matters, one to handle lovers. All this was meant to protect the NBA brand, the corporate brand. We’re athletes, but we’re more than athletes. I would love to see these corporations consider athletes as individuals, just as they consider themselves.

The former NBA center, who spent four-plus seasons with the Hawks, is among 12 finalists for induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. The announcement will be made Monday in Indianapolis, hours before the NCAA men’s championship game. An eight-time All-Star, Mutombo was chosen a finalist for the Class of 2015 in February, along with seven-time All-Star Jo Jo White, five-time All-Star Tim Hardaway, four-time All-Star Spencer Haywood and three-time All-Star Kevin Johnson. “Being from Africa, who would have ever thought that my name would have been called to the Basketball Hall of Fame?” Mutombo said in February. “I never dreamed of playing basketball to reach this level.” Other finalists are three-time WNBA MVP Lisa Leslie, NBA referee Dick Bavetta, Kentucky coach John Calipari, Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan, former NBA coach Bill Fitch and high school coaches Robert Hughes and Leta Andrews. Finalists must receive a minimum of 18 of 24 votes to be elected by the Honors Committee. Already chosen from the Class of 2015 as direct elects were John Isaacs, Louie Dampier, Lindsay Gaze, Tom Heinsohn and George Raveling. Mutombo played for the Hawks from 1996-2001. He was four-time All-Star with Atlanta and won three of his four Defensive Player of the Year awards with the team.
