“Dave’s Front Office” is hosted by former NBA player, coach, and general manager Dave Wohl, who has spent 50 years in pro basketball. “Dave’s Front Office” features high profile guests and some of the greatest minds in basketball. He will focus on team building, strategy, social issues, and simply “talking hoops.”
On the new "Dave's Front Office," Golden State Warriors President Rick Welts pays a visit to Dave Wohl. Rick is a member of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame even though he never made a bucket or coached a game. Rick's NBA story began almost 50 years ago when he became a ball boy for the Seattle Sonics. He has been a pioneer in the marketing of the sport, conceiving the idea for NBA All Star Weekend back in 1984 and doing so much more to grow the sport around the world. In 2011 when he came out as gay in a New York Times article, he became the first major sports figure to do so. Over the years, he has been an inspiration to millions for his courage as well as for his skills as an executive and his kindness as a human being. In this conversation with Dave Wohl, Rick reflects on his journey and also on his plans for the future, which will hopefully include the return of NBA basketball to his beloved Seattle.
