At 7'2" and 315 pounds, his physique was often compared to that of Shaquille O'Neal, especially when he was a young and raw-skilled center at The College of St. Rose. However, he only appeared in a total of four National Basketball Association games, two with the Denver Nuggets and two with the Toronto Raptors during the 2000–01 NBA season. As of the 2018 offseason, Joseph is still the only Dominiquais player in NBA history.

Joseph was a member of the Dominica national basketball team.[1]
