Overview
- Major outlets reported Monday that Schröder has moved from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Charlotte Hornets, making this the 12th NBA team of his career since being drafted in 2013.
- Schröder told German media the change provides a 'sportlich die bessere Situation' because he will get more playing time and be allowed to run the offense rather than playing behind James Harden and Donovan Mitchell.
- He will travel to Germany this week to join the national-team camp for the Supercup in Hamburg and the upcoming World Cup qualifying games.
- Schröder is expected to mentor Hornets rookies Hannes Steinbach and Christian Anderson and said he values helping them adapt, including speaking with them in their native language.
- The move continues Schröder’s highly mobile NBA career and could raise his on-court usage in Charlotte, a change that may extend his role for club and country going into the season.
