Alonzo Mourning offering some positive news on his Georgetown brother Dikembe Mutombo. @officialmutombo is undergoing treatment for a brain tumor.

From Mourning’s post:

Thanking God this morning!

My brotha is on the mend and in good spirits!!! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. Prayer is truly uplifting. 🙏🏾

This isn’t the first time one of the Georgetown bigs showed up in support of an ailing brother:

After Alonzo Mourning was diagnosed with a kidney ailment in 2000, Ewing — at the height of the Heat-Knicks rivalry that they were a part of— promised that he would donate one of his kidneys to Mourning if he ever needed one and was even tested for kidney compatibility with Mourning.

Mourning eventually received a new kidney from a distant cousin, but the gesture from Ewing showed how fraternally connected all the Georgetown alum that were coached under John Thompson are.

Edit: it appears Spears deleted his original tweet
