Dizdarevic and Izzo Try Their Luck Abroad

The Washington Post has a fascinating article this morning about Sead Dizdarevic and Kenny Izzo's pursuit of professional basketball careers abroad. With all of the hype surrounding Roy and Jeff, you sometimes forget about the other guys--especially guys like Kenny and Sed that labor in relative obscurity (even to the VBB). I am especially intrigued by Kenny. You have to admire the kid's tenacity. He walks on, never plays, and he still hasn't given up the dream of playing as a pro. It takes a special person to keep the faith in that kind of situation.

Anyway, the article is worth a read. Check it out.
