Dennis Rodman announces North Korea squad

Former NBA forward Dennis Rodman announces his team to play an exhibition game in North Korea.

Retired NBA star Dennis Rodman has named his squad for an exhibition basketball game in North Korea.

Former All-Stars Kenny Anderson, Cliff Robinson, and Vin Baker are among those who will travel to Asia this week.

The 52-year-old told ESPN: "My previous travels have allowed me to feel the enthusiasm and warmth of fans.

"The positive memories and smiles on the faces of the children and families are a testament to the great efforts we have put into fulfilling our mission wherever we go voiding any politics.

"We are all looking forward to arriving in Pyongyang, meeting the citizens, visiting various charities and using the opportunity to develop new relationships that result in our annual return."

Rodman, who won five titles during his career, has visited the country twice in the last year to promote the sport there.
