He&#8217;s impacted a ton of regular season and playoff games.

Now, eight seasons later, the German point guard is recognized as one of the league&#8217;s steady veterans, having played 912 games over 13 NBA seasons. In those contests, Schroder has averaged 13.7 points, 4.9 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 0.8 steals while shooting 43% from the field and 34.1% from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n<p>For more NBA content, check out the BasketBaltes podcast: <\/p>\n<p><a data-ylk=\"elmt:article-inline-link;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@BasketBaltes\/videos\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@BasketBaltes\/videos<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a data-ylk=\"elmt:article-inline-link;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/basketbaltes\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/basketbaltes\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Rookie Wire: <a data-ylk=\"elmt:article-inline-link;\" href=\"https:\/\/therookiewire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nba\/rookie\/2026\/09\/30\/charles-lee-reveals-dennis-schroders-role-after-trade-with-cavs\/92028532007\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Hornets&#8217; head coach reveals Dennis Schroder&#8217;s role after trade with Cavs<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wed, September 30, 2026 at 8:48 PM UTC Training camp is underway for the Charlotte Hornets, with their&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":848057,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3777],"tags":[7,684,473,3878,685,6],"class_list":["post-848056","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-charlotte-hornets","tag-basketball","tag-charlotte","tag-charlotte-hornets","tag-charlottehornets","tag-hornets","tag-nba"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/117363711080478721","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/848056","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=848056"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/848056\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/848057"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=848056"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=848056"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=848056"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
