”Hello basketball fans,
It´s been a while now since I played my first EuroCup game with the Cologne 99ers in the 2007-08 season. I was 17 years old and got my first international minutes on the court. I am playing my eighth season now on the highest European level and what can I say? I am thankful for that. Thankful for all the experiences I got – on and off the court. Thankful for meeting so many nice people and cultures. I spent four of the eight years in Spain starting in Vitoria where I had a two-year contract, then I moved to Barcelona and now am with Valencia Basket. I feel very comfortable here. We have a great team with good team chemistry and a great organization. It’s like a second family. I felt very welcome when I moved here; the city is beautiful, the weather is just perfect, the food is great – as you can see there is no need to complain.
I grew up in Cologne, Germany, where I started my career with the 99ers. It´s said that people from Cologne are very open-minded and can adapt everywhere around the world. I don´t know if it´s really everywhere, but I can say that I could adapt to all my career stages so far. Besides the Spanish teams, there was Salt Lake City and of course Istanbul, where I played last season with Galatasaray. Also, Bamberg is very different from Cologne if you compare the mentality of the people. I liked all the stages, even though they were very different”.
