The Bare's Den w/ Matt Bare
The Bare's Den Podcast is hosted by Matt Bare and this podcast will be an interview style podcast having conversations with coaches, players and friends of the basketball community. I also hope to connect with people from other sports down the road. I’ll focus on interesting stories that have happened around the state and hopefully the country as well. I hope to share the path of many of these guests and how they got to be where they are today. The goal is to connect with you to share interesting stories and perspectives about a particular event, person or team.

Episode 86
Detlef grew up in West Germany and left his senior year to be a foreign exchange student in Washington state. He went on to play college ball for the University of Washington and was drafted to the NBA. During his 16-year career he was voted NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year twice and was the first European player to play in the All-Star game. Detlef’s steady game was an important piece to the successful and exciting Seattle Supersonic teams of the 1990’s. Detlef was on the forefront of European players to make it in the NBA and he has also forged a very successful career in his post-NBA days.
