In 2013, which athlete visited Kim Jong Un in North Korea, calling him a “friend for life”?
Mike Tyson
Dennis Rodman
Shaquille O’Neal
Muhammad Ali
Dennis Rodman is considered one of basketball’s all-time great rebounders and known for his outlandish behavior both on and off the court. In 2013, Rodman traveled to North Korea and met with the country’s leader, Kim Jong Un. The two share a love of basketball, and Rodman watched a game with Kim during his visit. He later said Kim was “a friend for life” and that Kim was “awesome” and “so honest.” The former pro basketball player also expressed an interest in returning to North Korea to help facilitate peace between the U.S. and North Korea.
The correct answer is Dennis Rodman.
