Former Hoya Brings Basketball Home
Ashanti Cook was not totally surprised when his friend and former Georgetown teammate, Sead Dizdarevic, called him up a few months ago and invited him to go to Montenegro to help run a week-long basketball camp. After all, Dizdarevic had often talked about his homeland and his desire to bring the Hoyas there, and as Cook put it, "Sead, whenever he puts his mind to something, he gets it done."
Over the past few months, Dizdarevic has been working with the U.S. Embassy in Montenegro to plan this trip, which he calls "a basketball diplomacy program." He secured funding from the U.S. State Department and Opportunity Bank, a microfinance institution based in Podgorica, Montenegro, and enlisted the help of four former teammates -- Cook, Darrel Owens, Amadou Kilkenny-Diaw and RaMell Ross -- and one former coach, Matt Henry, Georgetown's director of basketball operations.
