It’s just before the end of the transfer window in the NBA: The German national basketball players Dennis Schröder and Daniel Theis swap teams in the North American professional league NBA. As the Houston Rockets announced, Schröder will play for the Texans in the future, while Theis will return to the Boston Celtics.
For point guard Schröder, who is traded to Houston along with Enes Freedom and Bruno Fernando, the transfer is a sporting relegation. The Rockets are currently last in the Western Conference and the Celtics are seventh in the east. For the 28-year-old, who only moved to Boston from the Los Angeles Lakers last summer, Houston is the fourth NBA station in the past four years.
NBA: Schröder and Theis swap teams
Theis (29) had already played for the Celtics from 2017 to March 2021. He was later unable to build on his performances on the east coast with the Chicago Bulls and the Rockets.

The most spectacular swap at the end of the NBA transfer period involved US star James Harden and Australian Ben Simmons.

Simmons will play for the New York team, which also has Seth Curry, Andre Drummond and two first-round picks in the NBA draft. (sid)
