Charlotte Hornets: UPDATE: @hornets guard Dennis Schroder (R Foot) has been upgraded to probable
According to StatMuse, Schroder became the first player in NBA history to score 25+ points with nine different franchises. He scored 25 points in Saturday night's 115-110 win against the Miami Heat, while also adding 6 rebounds and 4 assists.
Sam Perley: Dennis Schröder on being with the Hornets for a month now: "Teammates make it easy. Everybody is selfless and playing for each other. We let the ball hop, try to play fast, try to get it out quick, shoot a lot of 3's, offensive rebounding... I think everybody is involved."
Sam Perley: Asked Dennis Schröder about the mismatches he had in Brooklyn: "It's an advantage when they (other teams) switch, either for the big (ours) or myself. Try to hit the paint and try to look for my teammates, but when I'm open to shoot a layup, I'm going to be aggressive, as well."

Nearly a month later, the Cavs made a five-team trade for swingman Peyton Watson, which involved the departures of veterans Max Strus and Dennis Schröder. That created a path for Porter to become the team’s backup point guard, something he’s been working for his entire career. “In this job, you hate to see guys go but it’s kind of how it is — something has to happen to get an opportunity,” Porter said. “The opportunity is there and I have to go take it. Honestly, it’s all in my hands.”
Q. Just overall, what has been your reaction coming here, reuniting with Charles Lee, and joining this team? Dennis Schroeder: Yeah, I mean me and Charles go way back. Jeff Peterson go way back from the Atlanta days, 2013. So positive energy. Coaching staff is really really positive about what we try to accomplish. Players took me in really really easy. Made the transition really easy for me on the court. Off the court, we still got to get settled with the family and all, but overall, I'm really happy to be here.
Sam Perley: Hannes Steinbach on playing with Dennis Schröder: "It's great to have someone who can speak German. To play and learn from him is going to be great." Steinbach adds shooting has been a point of emphasis this summer.
Dennis Schroder led Germany to a 96-94 overtime victory over previously unbeaten Poland in the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2027 European Qualifiers. The NBA guard finished with a team-high 18 points and five assists, including the two free throws that settled the contest. Johannes Thiemann added 14 points and 12 rebounds, Maodo Lo scored 13, and Isaac Bonga contributed 10 points and five steals.
Keith Smith: Typical strong game from Dennis Schroder as Germany took down Netherlands: 23 points, 6 assists, 2 steals. Tristan da Silva: 5/6/4/2/1. Rienk Mast, who played for Indiana at Summer League, had a strong game for Netherlands: 17 points, 5 rebounds.

When addressing speculation regarding a potential homecoming to European basketball, particularly within the EuroLeague, the 32-year-old playmaker made it clear he has no intention of simply bolstering an established continental powerhouse. “People often ask me if I could come back to play in Europe, especially in the EuroLeague,” he noted during a recent appearance on the OMR Podcast. “But in that case, I’d be helping another club become bigger. I prefer to return to Braunschweig, where it all started, and play here.”
While mapping out his future, the Braunschweig native and majority shareholder of the local professional team acknowledged that soaring financial projections in the NBA could influence his timeline. Pointing to the league economics and front-office spending, he admitted that a lucrative contract offer could alter his plans. “I’ve heard that in 2028, NBA salaries are going to increase even more. Obviously, it’s not just about money, but if they put 10, 15, or 20 million a year on the table, then I might think about it a little longer,” he explained.
“After this season, my goal will be to extend again. Every year, about 30 new players enter the league, and 30 others have to leave. If you arrive at that point without a contract, no matter your level, it can happen that you don’t get one anymore,” he said.
