Daniel Theis, former NBA player, set to join the EuroLeague

This player is an experienced veteran in the NBA with a track record of 8 years. Throughout his career, he has maintained solid averages of 7.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game.

Before the NBA, Theis played in the German league. With Monaco, he will return to the EuroLeague.

“Monaco has built something great over the last few years by reaching the last four of the EuroLeague and this year by being in the top four of the standings so far,” he said. “Obviously, I wanted to be part of that adventure, to win, to have a chance to win the EuroLeague, to be competitive.”

Theis won the World Cup in 2023 after Germany pulled off the biggest upset of its basketball history when the Germans 

held on to beat the United States 113-111

 in the semifinals, then defeated Serbia in the final.

Theis was traded earlier this month by the New Orleans Pelicans to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who subsequently waived him.

The 6-foot-8 Theis had appeared in 38 games with nine starts for New Orleans this season, averaging 4.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 16.3 minutes per game.
