DeShane "Shane" Davis Larkin (born October 2, 1992) is an American professional basketball player for Baskonia of the Liga ACB and the EuroLeague. He played college basketball for the University of Miami. He was selected by the Atlanta Hawks with the 18th overall pick in the 2013 NBA draft, where he was immediately traded to the Dallas Mavericks. Larkin is the son of Baseball Hall of Famer Barry Larkin.
Larkin was born in Cincinnati, Ohio on October 2, 1992 to parents Barry and Lisa Larkin. His father Barry is a Hall of Fame shortstop for the Cincinnati Reds. Other athletes in Larkin's family include his uncles, former Xavier University standout basketball player Byron Larkin, and former Major League first baseman Stephen Larkin. When Larkin was in elementary school, his father's Reds teammates Tony Pérez and Pete Rose would give the younger Larkin tips on hitting a baseball during spring training. After being told this training was "all wrong" by a Little League coach, Larkin quit baseball and decided to focus on basketball.
