Cologne (SID) – Basketball player Daniel Theis believes that the Boston Celtics have good chances to win the restart of the North American professional league NBA. “I personally believe that we have the best team in the east for everyone on equal terms,” said the 28-year-old in an interview with Spox. “
Theis is third with the Celtics before the season continues in the Eastern Conference and has already secured the play-off ticket eight matchdays before the end of regular season. At the final tournament, the center, like many other players with jersey messages, will set an example against racism. “For me it is once ‘Black Lives Matter’ and once ‘Equality’. Everyone should have the same chances in life, regardless of where they were born”, the Lower Saxony reasoned his choice.
After just a few weeks, Theis found life in the sealed-off NBA bubble in Disney World far from the family “extremely difficult”. During the months in home quarantine he had built up a “completely different connection” to his four-year-old daughter, so it was not easy to prepare her for the farewell: “Although she already noticed the World Cup last year, she is now aware of it say it’s longer, hurt. “
