Moritz Wagner

Moritz Wagner is a German basketball player who helped lead Germany to the 2023 FIBA World Cup title and starred collegiately at Michigan, reaching the 2018 NCAA championship game.

Moritz Wagner won the 2023 FIBA World Cup with Germany alongside his brother Franz and Dennis Schröder, then earned acceptance into the Harvard Business School Crossover Into Business program while still playing in the NBA — two achievements that sit at almost opposite ends of the standard professional athlete biography.. He was a key figure in the Wolverines' run to the 2018 NCAA championship game, earning Big Ten Tournament MVP honours after averaging 15.8 points and 6.5 rebounds during the tournament. The Los Angeles Lakers selected Wagner 25th overall in the 2018 NBA Draft, and he went on to play for the Washington Wizards, Boston Celtics, and Orlando Magic, developing into a reliable stretch big known for his outside shooting and energy off the bench. He was later joined in the NBA by his younger brother Franz Wagner, who was drafted eighth overall by Orlando in 2021. Internationally, Wagner has been a consistent contributor to Germany's rise as a basketball power, helping the national team win the 2023 FIBA World Cup title alongside Dennis Schröder and his brother Franz, and representing Germany at the 2024 Paris Olympics. He earned an MBA-track acceptance into the Harvard Business School Crossover Into Business program in 2022 while continuing his NBA career.
