Mutombo has 1 more blocks leader title and a higher peak at 4.5 bpg compared to Zo’s 3.9.
However, Alonzo’s late age run really impressed me. Even after his kidney problems, during the 2005 playoffs, despite playing just 17 mpg, he managed 2.2 bpg. This included 3.0 bpg during the ECF. In the 2006 Finals, Alonzo also managed 1.5 bpg. 1.5 bpg isn’t a lot by an elite shot-blocker’s standards, but he was playing limited minutes, was 36 and literally hampered by a life-threatening health condition.

If it’s close, then you have to give it to Mutombo for the finger wag. He’d block you and then taunt you with that 9” long meat claw.
Mutumbo pretty easily for me, 3 seasons better than Mourning’s career high is hard to ignore.
