Julian thanks for talking to German Hoops. Where are you at the moment and what are momentarily most in your thoughts now?

Hey Miles I’m currently in Ehingen looking for a new situation to come up. My thoughts are more reflecting on everything that’s happened up to now.

Recently this summer we talked about your future season Ehingen and you were very motivated about the new opportunity. You must of never thought in your wildest dreams that your stay would be so short?

Not at all but it was a mutual understanding with the manager as well as the coach.

This was most certainly a challenging summer for me training wise pushing my limits. I spent a lot of time thinking about my shortcomings and how I can push through when times get rough.

You will be playing your second season with the Uni Baskets Paderborn. A professional basketball players career might not always be a long affair so one has to appreciate it as much as possible. How much have you appreciated the city of Paderborn and has it become like a second home for you?

I made the decision to come back because I do have that home feeling and I’m blessed they welcomed me back with open arms. The city shows a lot of Love and that propels me to go harder.
