Daniel Theis

Vita and contact

I was born on April 4, 1992 in Salzgitter (Lower Saxony, Germany) and sport has always been my greatest passion. Before I was drawn to basketball, however, I played soccer until I was 15 years old, which I still enjoy very much. My professional career as a basketball player really started when I was 18 years old, but that didn’t t stop me from fighting every day for my dream of the NBA.

My life motto:

"He who fights can lose, he who does not fight has already lost." Bertolt Brecht
