In 1984, the University of Washington had something of a German pipeline with Christian Welp and Detlef Schrempf, who became a bit of an early prototype for what we now usually call positionless basketball. At 6-9, he could play point guard or any other position other than center, where his buddy Welp held things down.
Washington knocked Duke off in the 1984 tournament and then agreed to come to Cameron the following year. As we remember, and we haven’t watched the video so we might be wrong, the Huskies had an injured point guard so Schrempf had to handle the ball a lot.
