Understatement is not his thing. Extroverted, always a bit cocky is the image that Dennis Schröder, Germany’s currently probably best basketball player, gives off in the public eye. A photo of two gold Audi R8s in front of his villa posted on his social media channels is an example of his apparently quite pronounced need for recognition. The choice of words with which the 27-year-old announced in early summer that she would be the sole shareholder of his home club Basketball Löwen Braunschweig from July 1st was accordingly: “Let’s make history,” wrote Schröder immodestly on his Instagram account.
With the complete takeover of the club, in which he had previously held 70 percent of the shares, Schröder secured the lions a little more glamor in the basketball world. And in an economically tense situation, the existence that was seriously endangered by the corona pandemic: “Braunschweig is my home town, I want to give something back to the region. I am convinced that we will develop the location further and become a top club in the region League, “said the future team-mate of LeBron James at the Los Angeles Lakers at his presentation. “We want to become contenders (contenders, editor’s note) for the championship,” he said recently in an interview with “MagentaSport.” Schröder also recently selected a point in time when the time could come ?? with him in one of the leading roles to be awarded: “I would like to come back to Braunschweig at the age of 35 and play for the Lions. And that we then win a championship. That is my goal for Braunschweig and for me”, so Schröder on “Sky Sports News”.
With all the attention that the NBA star attracts, it is almost forgotten that the Braunschweig basketball project is perhaps the most exciting sport in the Bundesliga at the moment? and reminds a little of “Würzburg’s Junge Wilde”, when the X-Rays caused a sensation in the league before the turn of the millennium with Dirk Nowitzki, Robert Garrett, Demond Greene or Marvin Willoughby. You could call it “youthful” in Braunschweig, because nowhere else in the upper house is so consistently reliant on local players and young talent as in the Lower Saxony, who will compete at s.Oliver Würzburg on Sunday evening (8.30 p.m.). Only three foreign players are in the squad of the Austro-American head coach Pete Strobl.

“We are very young, we lack experience. But I am very proud that my team played with passion, with fighting spirit and as a team.”
Braunschweig’s coach Pete Strobl after the first win of the season against Vechta–
The burden of responsibility is shouldered by players like Karim Jallow (23), Kostja Mushidi (22), the ex-Würzburg Lukas Wank (23) or Luc van Slooten (18), who are still at the beginning of their careers. The ex-Bayreuth Lukas Meisner (25) or Gave Schilling (25), who moved from Ulm to the north, are almost among the veterans in the team. Most recently in the 96:78 win against Vechta, the Braunschweig team probably achieved something historic: five German players scored double-digit points, scoring 82 of the 96 points. “We are very young, we lack experience. But I am very proud that my team played with passion, with fighting spirit and as a team,” said Strobel after the first win of the season.
Dennis Schröder, at the first appearance of the season in the cup tournament, he could still be seen as a cheering grandstand guest, the customers in the USA should have taken note of the news. The headlines published by the “Bild” newspaper on Monday are likely to make him less happy. Allegedly, Schröder owes the event agency a five-digit amount to his last year’s wedding, the tabloid estimates the claims of the company at exactly 67,234.65 euros, which obtained an enforcement order from the district court of Uelzen / Lower Saxony and announced the judicial attachment. Schröder was “really very disappointed” with his lawyer, rejected the claims as “unfounded” and had already filed an objection to the decision at the end of October.
s.Oliver Würzburg ?? Basketball Löwen Braunschweig (Sunday, 8.30 p.m., s.Oliver Arena)
On the third attempt it should work for s.Oliver Würzburg with the first home win of this season. At an unusual time on Sunday evening, the Baskets with Braunschweig received an opponent at eye level – at least according to the paper form. After the 61:90 defeat against Hamburg last time, head coach Denis Wucherer is hoping for a step forward: “We had two weeks of very decent training and a good friendly against Bayreuth. We hope that we will see a difference to the last game on Sunday and reward us for our hard work. ” Against Lower Saxony, who with Karim Jallow currently have the third-best scorer in the league in their ranks (average 19.3 points per game), Wucherer warns of the speed and aggressiveness of the lions: “They all seem to have the green light to pull the trigger quickly and a lot to play one on one. “
His competitive debut after the successful comeback in the test against Bayreuth, US center Justin Sears will give. The 26-year-old wants to help his team with energy, communication and leadership skills: “I will be the loudest player in the hall,” promises Sears. As in the recent home game against Hamburg with Towers managing director Marvin Willoughby, an “old friend” will return to the s.Oliver Arena in Braunschweig in a responsible position with the opponent. Since November 8th, Nils Mittmann, from 2003 to 2005 captain at TSK Würzburg, has returned to his hometown as Löwen managing director. (sam)
