Dikembe Mutombo dontes $50,000 to Hurricane Harvey Relief fund

Hall of Fame center Dikembe Mutombo, who spent his final five NBA seasons with the Rockets, donated $50,000 to Mayor Sylvester Turner's Hurricane Harvey Relief fund to help the city he called his "second home."

"It's been very painful for me and my family to watch what is happening there," Mutombo said from his home in Atlanta. "Houston is second home. We still have a house there. We have our clothes there, the furniture. I have not moved out of Houston. It's very tragic to see those people who have lost everything and those that perish, it's very sad.
