Perhaps one day Robert Pack will get his opportunity to be a head coach in the NBA or at an American college. But as he gazed from his hotel balcony in the city of Kigali, Rwanda, the former NBA player and assistant coach said all he was focused on was the opportunity the Basketball Africa League gave him to finally be a head coach. “I’m here, and I want to take full advantage,” Pack told Andscape. “I don’t want to think about something else because then I can’t give all of myself to these young guys and take in the full experience of me being a head coach. They can’t get the best from me if my mind is elsewhere. So right now, I’m fully locked into helping these guys reach the highest level, both individually and as a unit. And after that, I’ll think about that.
