What the Hell Happened to...Brad Lohaus?

Brad at a happier time in his life

Lohaus was a 7 foot lefty from Iowa.  Despite his height, over 1/3^rd of his NBA points came from 3 pointers made.  In other words if you’ve never seen him play, think Toni Kukoc without all the other skills that made him very good.  I remember some referencing Lohaus as being the evil twin brother of Matt Bullard, (below) another Hawkeye with the inclination to shoot 3s instead of play inside.  I think it was more just because they were both tall white guys with blonde hair.

 

It's funny in fact if you Google Brad Lohaus the first image that comes up is Matt Bullard.

Anyways in researching Lohaus it seems he most recently was a salesman for an aviation service.  However he was accused of domestic assault and having attempted to swindle someone on ebay.

I’ll never forget the image of his bloody face in the 1988 conference Finals (Game 6) against Detroit after an encounter with Dennis Rodman.  I also remember the name my Dad gave him (I was 10 at the time) which said it all: Brad Blohaus.
