Dennis Schroder is a six-foot-one point guard who plays for Boston Celtics in the NBA. He was born on September 15, 1993, in Brunswick, Lower Saxony, Germany. Schroder’s parents are Fatou and Axel Schroder. The Atlanta Hawks selected him with the 17th overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft.
Schroder completed high school in Germany and was massively interested in skateboarding as a child. However, he began pursuing basketball seriously from the age of 11 and began his professional career with SG Braunschweig in Germany in 2010.
During the 2012-13 season, his final year in Germany, Schroder’s talents were too good to be left unnoticed, and he won the league’s Most Improved Player Award as well as the Best Young German Player honors.
He was called up in 2013 to participate in the Nike Hoop Summit, and Schoder declared his eligibility for the NBA Draft before participating in the event.
Dennis Schroder married Ellen Ziolo in 2019, and the couple has two kids together. Furthermore, his displays on the court have earned him a massive leap in the NBA 2K game. He had an overall rating of 80 and owned 24 badges in NBA 2K21. But after this mid-range playmaker's dismal performance in the 2020-21 season, his NBA 2K22 ratings dropped to 79.
Dennis Schroder NBA career
Schroder was picked by the Atlanta Hawks in the 2013 NBA draft. The point guard went as the 17th overall pick and came off the bench in his first three years in the league.
The German national had a breakout 2016/17 season as he started every game except one and posted impressive numbers. Schroder averaged 17.9 points and 6.3 assists per game and shot 45.1% from the field during the regular season.
However, his time in Atlanta was over by the end of the 2018 season as he was traded to OKC in a three-team trade. Schroder was given bench duties with the Thunder, and he fulfilled their expectations. The trade turned out to be extremely effective for the franchise.
He’s a valuable sixth man, and his scoring abilities are his biggest asset. Schroder’s effective bench scoring during 2019/20 regular season earned him a runner-up finish in the Sixth Man of the Year Voting.
Furthermore, 2020 NBA champions Los Angeles Lakers sought the services of Dennis Schroder and traded him into the team the same year. In fact, they even offered Dennis the Menace an $84 million contract which he declined and later saw his stalks dropping down.
As a result, his financials took a hit and he had to join the Celtics on a $5.89 million one-year contract.
