World Cup + European Championship MVP! 32-year-old Warriors abandoned their players and locked in the Hall of Fame? Kissing their beloved wife is worthy of the winner in life

Schroder received the best birthday gift. On the occasion of his 32nd birthday, he led the German men's basketball team to the top of Europe, and was selected as the best team, and was also elected as the MVP. At the press conference, teammates watered Schroeder's head and sang birthday songs to celebrate their captain's birthday.

This was an unforgettable night for Schroeder, and he once again won glory for the German men's basketball team. Schroeder also wrote a miracle, becoming the seventh player in history to have both the World Cup and European Championship MVP. The top six are Sergei Belov (World Cup 1970+European Championships 1969), Drazan Dalipadic (World Cup 1978+European Championships 1977), Drazin Petrovic (World Cup 1986+European Championships 1989), Tony Kukochi (World Cup 1990+European Championships 1991), Dirk Nowitzki (World Cup 2002+European Championships 2005), Paul Gasol (World Cup 2006+European Championships 2009/2015).

Schroeder was crowned the MVP at the 2023 World Cup and the 2025 European Championships. It is worth mentioning that the top six double-profile MVPs were all inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. This also means that Schroeder basically locked a seat in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. Stars who have achieved great success in international competitions can also be inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.

Schroeder played 34 minutes and 10 seconds in the final against the Turkish Men's Basketball Team, made 5 of 11 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, scoring 16 points, 3 rebounds and 12 assists. He is indeed a player who is good at fighting tough battles. Schroeder scored only 2 points in the first half, but strengthened his offense in the second half, led the team to counterattack, and dominated the game at a critical moment. With 1 minute and 15 seconds left in the game, Schroeder made a breakthrough layup, helping the German men's basketball team to surpass Türkiye 84-83.

In the next round, Schroeder made a mid-range shot, helping the German team lead by 3 points. Shin Kyung missed a three-pointer, Schroeder grabbed the rebound and was fouled by Ottoman. He stood on the free throw line and scored 2 goals steadily. At the critical moment of life and death, Schroeder scored 6 points in a row, helping the German men's basketball team narrowly defeat Türkiye 88-83.

The German team won the championship with a record of 9 wins and 0 losses in this European Championship, and the German team won the World Cup in the Men's Basketball World Cup two years ago. The German men's basketball team ushered in its peak moment in history, and their players are hailed as the Golden Generation.

Schroeder said: "Everyone calls us the 'golden generation'. I remember that we were eliminated in the first round of the 2019 World Cup, and everyone in the locker room was very disappointed. We continued to work hard on this basis, and the whole team remained consistent, and I was also appointed as captain. Everyone started to work in the same direction and work together toward the ultimate goal, which is to win the gold medal. We won the bronze medal in the 2022 European Championships, won the World Cup in 2023, and then won the fourth place in the Olympics, and won the championship again this summer!"

Schroeder also set a goal to play for the German men's basketball team until they were 40 years old. "I feel very honored to be able to represent the German team. It feels great to be with everyone every summer. That's why I want to keep playing for the country until I'm 40!" Schroeder said.

Schroder has not had a very satisfactory NBA field in recent years. He went to the Raptors after leaving the Lakers, and then was traded to the Nets in the 2023-24 season. In the 2024-25 season, Schroeder experienced two mid-season trades, and he was first traded by the Nets to the Warriors. The Warriors once had high hopes for him and looked forward to him becoming a good helper for Curry. But Schroeder was not adapted to the Warriors, and he was traded to the Pistons. During this offseason, Schroeder signed with the Kings for three years and $45 million, which is Schroeder's tenth team in the NBA.

The Warrior abandoned the player and achieved great success in the European Championship. It is worth mentioning that there has been another twists and turns behind the success of the German men's basketball team. The head coach of the German team is Spanish coach Alex Monblu, but before the start of the European Championship, he was admitted to the hospital for treatment due to an acute infection. This European Championship can only allow assistant coach Alan Ibrahimachi to command the battle.

Schroeder specifically praised Alan Ibrahimach at the press conference: "I want to pay tribute to Alan, he did it, it's not easy. Although Alex is the head coach, Alan's performance when coaching us is incredible. We have achieved a record of 9 wins and 0 losses. This is really an excellent coaching team."

It has to be said that this group of players in the German men's basketball team is really well-trained. Gordon Herbert coached the German men's basketball era, helping the team win the bronze medal in the 2022 European Championship, the 2023 World Cup and the fourth place in the 2024 Olympics. Herbert left the team after the Paris Olympics. Alex Monblu became the new coach of the German men's basketball team, but he was sick and unable to command the battle before the European Championship started. Fortunately, assistant coach Alan Ibrahimachi led the team to the top of the European Championship. In the final analysis, the German men's basketball team is strong enough.

Schroeder's wife Allen and his children came to the scene. After winning the championship, Schroeder staged a scene of kissing his beloved wife, which was the champion's kiss.
