In the second round of Group B in the group stage of the men's basketball European Championship, the German team defeated Sweden 105-83, achieving two consecutive victories during the group stage, while the Swedish team suffered two consecutive losses after the start of the playoffs.

In this game, the performance of the German starting center Daniel Theis was very eye-catching. Thes played 1303 seconds in the game, made 5 of 6 shots and 1 of 1 free throw, scored 11 points, 4 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block, and had 3 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +6. Thes actually didn't get much chance to play on the offensive end. Due to the foul issue, his playing time was also very limited, but he showed quite good personal abilities in his limited playing time. He has super finishing ability in the opponent's inside, and the opponent has no way to effectively limit his inside strong offense. His effect on the defensive end is also quite good, and he also has excellent inside defense ability. With Tes' form in this game, if he can get more playing time and higher tactical status, his data and performance will also go to a higher level.

In the previous game when Germany defeated Montenegro, Theis made 3 of 6 shots and 0 of 1 from outside the three-point line in 20 minutes of playing time, and scored 6 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. It also included 3 frontcourt rebounds, 1 turnover and 4 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +14. In fact, in the two games, Thes was able to provide certain help and support to the team on the offensive end, and his effect on the defensive end was pretty good. The problem is that his performance in foul control is indeed not ideal. His poor performance in this regard has also led to his very limited playing time, which directly leads to his lack of full display and display of his talents. He should be able to provide more support to the team on the court.

Thes was born in April 1992 and is 33 years old, 203cm tall and weighs 111kg. He was the undrafted in the 2013 NBA Draft. Although Thes was a undrafter, he received a multi-year contract from the Boston Celtics in the summer of 2017 and became an NBA player due to his outstanding performance in the European arena. In addition to the Celtics, Thes also played in the NBA with the Chicago Bulls, Houston Rockets, Indiana Pacers, Los Angeles Clippers and New Orleans Pelicans. However, in recent seasons, his performance in the NBA has also begun to fluctuate due to his age. Theis left the NBA field in the middle of last season and joined the French Ligue 1 upstart Monaco, and he will also continue to play in Monaco in the new season. It seems that Thes is still a very good player in the FIBA ​​arena, and he is still a key figure in the German team?
