Dennis Schroder’s journey continues with ninth team

February 2025 is surely the most exciting month in the NBA, because after the trade of Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers, new transfers and surprises continue to fall. This time, the main star in the market was one of the most prominent basketball players in the league, Jimmy Butler. He, along with several other players, became part of a big four-way trade that generated a lot of interest among basketball fans.

New challenges for Butler and other stars

The Golden State Warriors got Butler in this trade, who proved to be a key figure for the Miami Heat this season, averaging 17 points per game. While he may not be considered the best forward in the league, Butler's fight and experience could be just what the Warriors need in their hunt for another title.

In the same trade, the Miami Heat received Andrew Wiggins, Kyle Anderson, P.J. Tucker and a first round draft pick in 2025. This transfer could bring freshness and new energy to the team from Miami, which has had challenges this season, but with new players on the roster, they may be able to find the right rhythm.

Dennis Schroder, the German national team player, changed his club again. After being part of a trade between the Golden State Warriors and the Brooklyn Nets two months ago, he has now been traded to the Utah Jazz. This is already the ninth club for Schroder in his career, during which he played for the Atlanta Hawks, Oklahoma City Thunder, Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, Toronto Raptors and many other teams. This "nomadic" style of play has become his trademark, and he himself recently did not mince words when commenting on trends in the NBA.

"Trades have become like slavery, other people decide for you. Simply, they just tell you we sent you to another place," Schroder said after the trade of Dončić to the Lakers, not realizing that he would be part of another similar situation.

Jimmy Butler will play for the Golden State Warriors under a contract that lasts for another two years, and the total value of the contract is an incredible $121 million.
