Point guard Schröder is traded to 15th and bottom of the table in the Western Conference, while center Theis goes to Boston for seventh in the table in the Eastern Conference. And that on the last day of the trade deadline on Thursday!
According to basketball insiders and “The Athletic” journalist Shams Charania, Schröder should be released there immediately in order to be able to switch to another club as a “free agent” (player without a contract).
Among other things, Schröder’s ex-club Los Angeles Lakers is said to be interested in a return, but they rejected him in the offseason in the summer.
Ground: Before moving to the Boston Celtics, the German turned down an $84 million four-year extension. That really annoyed the bosses.
Schröder spoke up on Instagram and wrote dryly: “Thanks to my teammates and the organization.” Shortly afterwards he unfollowed the team.
Superstar Harden is also changing
The trade deadline had a few other hits to offer: Basketball superstar James Harden (32) and his teammate Paul Millsap (37) switched from the Brooklyn Nets to the Philadelphia 76ers.
In return, the Nets received Ben Simmons (25), Seth Curry (31), Andre Drummond (28) and two first-round draft picks.
James Harden’s change in particular is a hammer in the NBA!
Just last year, the superstar switched from the Houston Rockets to the Brooklyn Nets and had an excellent season with an average of 24.9 points and 10.9 assists. His contract expired in the summer.
Harden, 2012 Olympic champion with the USA, recently played with superstar Kevin Durant (33) and Kyrie Irving (29) in the Nets. Durant extended his contract for four years at the beginning of August 2021, he is said to earn up to the equivalent of 194.2 million euros.

Harden had repeatedly asked for a change in the past few days because he did not feel valued in the team due to the abundance of stars. The 76ers should now get better.
James Harden was named NBA MVP in 2018 and has set numerous basketball records. Among other things, Harden was the first player with 60 points to achieve the highest value in a triple double (double-digit number of points, double-digit number of assists, double-digit number of rebounds in a game).
The superstar was drafted by the Oklahoma City Thunder in 2009 before moving to Houston for nine years in 2012, where he became a legend.
Good for the 76ers: With Ben Simmons they get rid of a strike professional. The former No. 1 pick has not played a game this season because he has repeatedly refused to train.
