PYONGYANG, North Korea (KGO) -- Former NBA star Dennis Rodman arrived in North Korea Tuesday morning on a goodwill basketball mission.
Rodman is in the communist country with several Harlem Globetrotters and a crew from Vice Magazine. They're planning to run a basketball camp for kids, and play some pickup games with locals.
The trip is part of a new TV show airing on HBO this spring.
The State Department says it was not contacted about the trip.
