Ibaka tweeted the following regarding his heritage and asked the media to act responsibly and avoid “false reporting”. The statement goes as follows:

The rumor started spreading after ESPN’s Zach Lowe appeared on Bleacher Report’s The Full 48 podcast, stating: “Look, as uncomfortable as it is to say that, the league, not the league office, teams believe that [Ibaka] is older than his listed age. So whether he is or not, or what are the ethical issues of saying that, I don’t know. But it affects the free-agency market for him.”
