The German National Team reportedly has their captain back, as former Boston Celtics floor general Dennis Schroder has been cleared to return to play in FIBA qualifier play for the EuroBasket competition currently underway across the Atlantic Ocean from Boston, per new reporting from Eurohoops’ Johnny Askounis .
Recently, the point guard missed the German National Team’s last exhibition game with a non-specific ankle injury. Schroder played for the Celtics in 49 games of the 2021-22 NBA season before being dealt at the 2022 NBA trade deadline to the Houston Rockets as part of the package for fellow German National teammate Daniel Theis, who is currently also out injured along with fellow Boston big man alum Moritz Wagner.
The Boston alum is cleared to play in the 2023 FIBA World Cup European Qualifiers Group J opener against Slovenia and Luka Doncic this Sunday in Munich, Germany as of Thursday morning.
