Born: Aug.8, 1973 in Dominica
Full name: Garth Lazarua Joseph
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outlook:
A space eating defender and deadly short range shooter with a death touch for a big man. Joseph is a large man who wears a size XXXXXL uniform and a size 18 shoe. Growing up on Dominica (an island in the West Indies under British control, known by Americans mostly for its medical school), he originally played soccer as a youth and only began to play basketball at 16. He began to grow at the age of 12 and did not envision a college, let alone professional basketball career. Driven more by academics than sports, Joseph dreamed of attending college in the United States.
