Dennis Schröder'S Heated Reaction To Eurobasket 2025 Coaching Award Sparks Buzz

Dennis Schröder's Fiery Outburst After EuroBasket 2025 Final

Dennis Schröder made headlines with his unfiltered reaction to Ergin Ataman winning Coach of the Year at EuroBasket 2025. During the NBA off-season, Europe's top teams battled it out for continental glory, culminating in a thrilling final between Schröder's Germany and Ataman's Turkey.

Despite an impressive run by Team Turkey, led by NBA talents Alperen Şengün and Cedi Osman, Germany emerged triumphant with a nail-biting 88-83 victory. The win, a testament to Schröder's leadership on the court, was overshadowed by the post-game announcement that gave Ataman the coaching accolade, leaving Schröder visibly unimpressed.

Ataman's Confidence Met with Schröder's Criticism

Team Turkey's journey to the finals wasn't without its drama. Ergin Ataman was vocal about his team's potential, famously declaring, "If I am in the Final, I will win." However, despite his confidence, Turkey faltered in the final moments against a resilient German squad.

“Ataman, f*** out of here! Best Coach? My ass!” Schröder shouted while celebrating the title victory on the bus.

Schröder didn't hold back his feelings, even mocking Ataman's earlier confidence by reposting one of his quotes with the cheeky caption, "I kiss your heart," in German. This bold display of emotion sparked widespread reactions, with many fans and commentators weighing in on Schröder's controversial words.

Fans Divide Over Schröder's Reaction

Schröder's passionate outburst came despite his own accolades, including the MVP award for EuroBasket 2025. Yet, his colorful language and public dismissal of Ataman's achievement didn't sit well with everyone. Some fans were quick to criticize Schröder, noting his lack of significant NBA success and frequent team trades as reasons to temper his triumph.

Nonetheless, Schröder stands as the reigning World Cup and EuroBasket TISSOT MVP, helping Germany secure its second major international trophy in three years. This victory reinforces Germany's status as a strong contender in future international competitions, even as Schröder's outspoken nature continues to stir the pot.
