D.C. Assault GM says the arrest of AAU team’s co-founder won’t jeopardize its future

Assault says he expects the Washington-based AAU basketball program to take “a PR [fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”][public relations] hit” after its co-founder was arrested on federal charges of drug trafficking, but he doesn’t believe it will jeopardize the organization’s future.

Damon Handon, who has been with D.C.
