I was really surprised (and impressed) at just how good the standard of play was.
It was my first time in a place that I hadn’t really considered visiting prior.
I was surprised to see a thriving basketball community.
From very early on, I identified the courts at Kalemegdan Park in Belgrade as one that I wanted to play on.
This run only came about after having lunch with former NBA player, Damjan Rudez.
I learned later that this court was the main meeting point for the best ballers in the city.
What made it really fun was that because there were so many players.
I watched the guys balling and saw some pretty good athletes.
I was really impressed by the standard of the players.
They told me I would be playing at the “Rucker Park” of Kenya.
