What NBA team does Dennis Schroder play for? Germany star to play for sixth franchise after FIBA World Cup image

Since the retirement of Dirk Nowitzki, Dennis Schröder has been the face of Germany's Senior Men's National Basketball team. Schröder, who hails from Braunschweig, Germany, first represented his nation at the senior level in 2014 and led the national team to bronze at FIBA EuroBasket 2022.

One year later, Schröder's play has been the driving force that has led Germany on an undefeated run to the quarterfinals of the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, where his team is now set to face a talented USA squad. Luckily for Germany, thriving against NBA talent is something Schröder has gotten accustomed to doing over the course of his 10-year NBA career.
