Known for Blocking Shots, Biyombo Dishes Out Another Assist Back Home

On the basketball court, Bismack Biyombo is a rebound-grabbing, rim-protecting, defense-first, all-out-hustle big man. Off of it though, he’s more like your typical, traditional point guard who relishes in setting others up for success.

Earlier this week, Biyombo – acquired by the organization on July 8 in a trade with the Orlando Magic – was part of a rather distinguished group that helped celebrate the opening of the Sauti Kuu Foundation’s new sports and education facility in Kogela, Kenya.

Headlining this particular event was former U.S. President Barack Obama and his sister, Auma, who is the founder and Executive Chairperson of the Sauti Kuu Foundation.
