B&B: We come to the Mountain

DEAN Uthoff terrorised the NBL playing landscape for most of 1983 to 1996, an American import standing at an imposing 208cm and weighing 122kg, most of which was rippling muscle. As Brad Rosen and I found with this week's Brad&Boti podcast, fearsome Dean was actually a gentle giant.

Vale Ken Edick, a very different import
