Boston – The team swap of the two national basketball players Dennis Schröder and Daniel Theis is official. As the Houston Rockets announced, Schröder is moving from the Boston Celtics to Texas – in return, Theis is going back to his former club.
Both professionals had only signed contracts with the two teams at the beginning of the season, but were not able to establish themselves. The transfer period in the best basketball league in the world ended on Thursday. In the biggest deal of the day, James Harden traded Ben Simmons from the Brooklyn Nets to the Philadelphia 76ers.
In the NBA, players rarely have a say in such deals. Schröder had played for the Los Angeles Lakers before moving to Boston. The 28-year-old got there through a swap deal between the Lakers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, for whom he had previously played for two years. His first team in the NBA was the Atlanta Hawks from 2013 to 2018.
Theis signed a contract with the Rockets in August, but has not been used at all in the past few weeks and was last active on January 14th. Theis began his NBA career with the Celtics in 2017 and had his best phase in the NBA in the three years he was there. But last season he was sent to the Chicago Bulls and went from there to Houston in the summer. Both the Celtics and the Rockets have so far fallen far short of their own expectations this season.
