Sky is the limit for the towering boy wonder from TanzaniaTanzania is abuzz with excitement following reports that Hasheem Thabeet is expected to touch down in Dar es salaam this weekend for a short vacation, several months after the 7-3 feet basketball star clinched a lucrative NBA contract with The Memphis Grizzlies.
Hasheem told this Blog thru email that he will be coming with his young brother Akbar to visit young sister Sham and mother. His mum has just returned home from the US, where she had gone to be with Hasheem on every inch of the way to NBA stardom.
Secretary of the Tanzania Basketball Federation Lawrence Cheyo confirmed the news, saying TBF are stitching together a welcome home bash for Hasheem.
But the US Embassy in Dar es salaam seems to have beaten TBF with a slam dunk - they are hosting a welcome reception for Hasheem on Monday August 17, 2009, reliable sources have confirmed. Entrance by invitation only!!!
Hasheem's home-coming is the first- of- its- kind event ever to happen to Tanzania. Well, he is the first professional player of any game to hit it big out there. His home coming is expecxted to be inspirational to all athletes.
