Ep 43: Denham Brown

DENHAM BROWN, Mr. 111 points in a single game, pulls up on Canada Hoops! Denham sits down with your boy Matty to share his legendary career and place in the game of basketball in Canada. D-Brown talks about his new coaching role at Oakville Prep and then takes us on an incredible ride as he shares how basketball came into his life. Denham talks about playing the game at an early age, looking up to his Aunt (who was a helluva ball player) and embarking on a journey that would find him as the # 1 player in Canada, winning MVP at Nike Nationals, playing in the Jordan Brand Classic, gracing the pages of SLAM Magazine; and of course dropping 111 points in his last game at West Hill.

Denham tells us about his years as a UCONN Huskie as he put on for Toronto and all of Canada. At UCONN Denham would of course become a National Champion, score 1000 points in his NCAA career and D-Brown tells us about his memories of playing for the legendary coach Jim Calhoun.

Denham talks about being drafted into the NBA by the Seattle Supersonics and tells us about the rest of his professional career.

And of course you know we get into the Canada Basketball side with Denham. D-Brown talks about what it meant to play for Canada, his lifelong friendships and relationships with his teammates and more. Denham gives us his Top 5/Favourite 5 of all time for Canada Basketball which was incredible to hear as Denham is a player who is gets mentioned by his peers and other Canada Hoops guests as one of the best to ever do it.

Much love to the LEGEND, Mr. 111, Denham Brown for pulling up on Canada Hoops!
