Isaiah Hartenstein has made history as the second German to win an NBA title with his team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, after a victory over the Indiana Pacers. Celebrating this achievement, he emphasized the importance of teamwork and how it contributed to their success. Despite his achievements, Hartenstein has often prioritized the NBA over international play, missing Germany's recent basketball successes. However, he has expressed a desire to play for Germany in the upcoming 2028 Olympics if circumstances allow, indicating a willingness to balance both aspirations in the future.
"Our strength lies in our unity. We support each other regardless of minutes played, and that’s what led us to victory. Together we win!"
"The NBA will always be my priority. While I treasure the idea of representing Germany, my focus remains on my journey in the NBA."
