While his Seton Hall teammates spent their summer in South Orange participating in team workouts, Sandro Mamukelashvili was living out a childhood dream.
For the first time, Mamukelashvili was honored with the opportunity to play for his home country, Georgia, in the 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup Qualifiers and the FIBA U20 European Championship.
“I always dreamed of playing for Georgia,” Mamukelashvili said. “It was great. A lot of great players on my team and other teams, too. I feel like I got a lot more experience playing with the other national teams because every national team is built from the 12 best players in the country.
