Former Boston Celtics big man battling injury in France finals
While Daniel Theis ended up on a contending AS Monaco team that's in the French finals, he won't be able to contribute going forward. The former Celtics big man is out for the rest of the series due to a knee injury, per multiple reports. AS Monaco is down 1-0 in the best-of-five series to Paris Basketball in the top French league. So as AS Monaco looks to bounce back from a 94-82 loss, it'll have to do so without Theis, who had been a big part of the team. He's averaged 11.7 points and 5.5 rebounds in EuroLeague play since being signed back in February. Advertisement Theis started the season on the Pelicans, where he played in 38 games (nine starts), averaging 4.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game. But the Pelicans elected to move him to the Thunder to avoid the luxury tax. Theis was then waived from Oklahoma City, making him a free agent. While Theis could've explored the NBA market after getting waived, he elected to sign overseas with the French squad. AS Monaco earned the No. 3 seed in the French playoffs before making it to the finals. While Theis could try to make an NBA comeback, for now, he's put a pause on that part of his career. Theis played for the Celtics in two different stints that also included an appearance in the 2022 NBA Finals. He also suited up for the Bulls, Rockets, Pacers and Clippers during his time in the NBA. While he saw his playing time slowly start to diminish stateside, he got an opportunity for a larger role overseas with AS Monaco. More Celtics content Read the original article on MassLive.

Former NBA player Daniel Theis joins Monaco to play in the EuroLeague
MONACO (AP) — Center Daniel Theis, a former NBA player from Germany who won the World Cup with his country, has joined Monaco. Theis is an eight-year NBA veteran with career averages of 7.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists. Before the NBA, Theis played in the German league. With Monaco, he will return to the EuroLeague. 'Monaco has built something great over the last few years by reaching the last four of the EuroLeague and this year by being in the top four of the standings so far,' he said. 'Obviously, I wanted to be part of that adventure, to win, to have a chance to win the EuroLeague, to be competitive.' Theis won the World Cup in 2023 after Germany pulled off the biggest upset of its basketball history when the Germans held on to beat the United States 113-111 in the semifinals, then defeated Serbia in the final.

The 6-foot-8 Theis had appeared in 38 games with nine starts for New Orleans this season, averaging 4.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 16.3 minutes per game. ___ AP NBA:
