Basketball national player Tristan da Silva from the Orlando Magic is particularly looking forward to one thing about the Germany game with his NBA club in Berlin. «My family and many friends will come. “I’m also looking forward to a real kebab,” the 24-year-old winger told the “Augsburger Allgemeine” in an interview.
For the European champion it will be “nice to be in Germany again. But it will definitely be a cool trip for my teammates from the Magic, as we know there are a lot of sights in Berlin. They will also learn a lot about German culture and way of life,” said da Silva.
The Munich native plays in a team with Franz and Moritz Wagner, who is still missing due to a torn cruciate ligament. For the brothers, the NBA game against the Memphis Grizzlies on January 15th in the Uber Arena (8 p.m.) is a return to their hometown. It is the NBA’s first main round game in Germany.
