Dikembe Mutombo Mpolondo Mukamba Jean Jacque Wamutombo

That is actually his full name.

Thanks, Stuart Scott...

This is not the longest, but when the Reds had Dave Conception, they had huge letters on the back of their jersey. The name curved from armpit to armpit.

Minnesota used to have a center named Earnest Nzigamazabo

except it is spelled Concepcion

Jason Vanlandingham

Henry Rowengartner(only kidding, of course)

Vladimir Konstantinov's sorta long

On the opposite side, is Ty Law the shortest full name in all of sports? The closest I can think of is Rob Ray, which is a letter too long.

what about George Papadapolis?

:D

Why did he call the mother "Ma'am", but Alex Karras was "George"?

I think Papadopolous was called "George" because he was the teammate and good friend of Webster's dad. If kids hang around a locker room, they probably know a player more than the player's wife.

I don't like Duke, but they have two names worthy of this thread ...

Steve Wojciechowski (ex-PG, current assistant)

Mike Krzyzewski (a stretch, since it wasn't ever on the back of a jersey, and it's a mere 10 letters) ...
