Basketball journalist Robert Heusel (BIG) first reported on the impending transfer.
Da Silva moved from Alba Berlin to Spain in 2022 and signed a three-year contract there.
In the last Euroleague season, the center was on the floor for Barcelona for an average of almost 15 minutes per game and scored 3.4 points.

Now the 2.06 meter man is returning to his hometown. But he never played for Bayern there.
When asked whether he could imagine working for the cup winners, he said in an interview with BILD am SONNTAG at the beginning of April: “I don’t have a crystal ball. FC Bayern has an exciting project underway, with coach Pablo Laso and with the new mega hall.”

At that time he also praised the club’s development: Bayern are also aiming for the top in Europe, that’s a nice development. But ‘money talks’ also applies to basketball. There are many other clubs in Europe with larger budgets. In any case, I have contact with Munich, I have roots there, but not with Bayern Munich.”
What he means – the basketball players are moving to the newly built SAP Garden next season. The arena is expected to be one of the most modern in Europe.
Da Silva (four international matches for Germany) is the son of a Brazilian and a German mother. He says: “But I’m more German than Brazilian, so it was clear that I wanted to play for Germany.” Before the 2023 World Cup, in which Germany won the title in Manila, Philippines, he was one of the last to be chosen by national coach Gordon Herbert (65) removed from the squad.

Now he hopes to be invited to the DBB training camp for the Olympic Games in Paris. Appropriately, the camp takes place in Munich.
Oscar’s brother Tristan (23) has registered for the upcoming NBA draft (June 27) after four years at college. Experts believe he can make the leap into the best league in the world.
