Former NBA star Dennis Rodman is praising President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's decision to meet in the coming months.
"Big respect to President Trump and Marshal Kim Jong Un for their historic meeting coming up," Rodman said in a statement issued to USA TODAY Sports on Friday through his agent, Darren Prince. "I said it back in 2014 on CNN that the door will open eventually."
When asked whether he would have interest in accompanying Trump on the trip, Rodman told USA TODAY Sports, again through his agent, that he would "love to" if he is asked.
A 14-year NBA veteran and five-time champion, Rodman has made headlines in recent years for his controversial friendship with Kim, whom he first met in 2013. The 56-year-old has made several trips to North Korea in the years since and, as recently as December, had urged Trump to let him travel to North Korea as a peace envoy.
