Wagner Franz
In der NBA kämpft der deutsche Basketball-Superstar Franz Wagner (23) um den Einzug in die Playoffs. Da ist seine College-Liebe Emily Kiser (25) mit Alba Berlin schon einen Schritt weiter.
Sie bestreitet am Dienstag (19 Uhr, Sömmeringhalle) das alles entscheidende fünfte Halbfinal-Spiel gegen Saarlouis, er fünfeinhalb Stunden später das Playin-Duell zu Hause gegen Atlanta …
<!–>
7834 Kilometer trennen Franz Wagner damit von seiner College-Liebe Emily Kiser. Er in Orlando/ Florida, sie in seiner Heimatstadt Berlin. Zufall ist das natürlich nicht …
Die beiden lernten sich an der berühmten Uni in Ann Arbor (Michigan) kennen. Kiser spielte von 2018 bis 2023 dort, Franz Wagner von 2019 bis 2021.
„Berlin war die erste Stadt außerhalb der USA, die ich besucht habe – wegen Franz. Von daher wusste ich, dass ich Berlin lieben würde“, erzählt Kiser. „Er hatte in seinem College-Zimmer immer sehr viele Alba-Sachen hängen. Dadurch bin ich auf Alba aufmerksam geworden“, erzählt sie. „Aber das war für mich nicht der entscheidende Faktor.“
[–>Albas Sportdirektor Himar Ojeda (52), der auch für das Frauenteam zuständig ist: „Sie wurde uns von ihrem Agenten angeboten. Um ein Gefühl für eine Spielerin zu bekommen, rede ich auch mit Personen aus dem Umfeld.“ Also auch mit Franz Wagner, der bei Alba groß wurde, mit 16 Jahren jüngster Berliner Bundesligaspieler aller Zeiten wurde.
Franz Wagner wurde 2021 von Orlando Magic in der ersten Runde gedraftet, ist der Superstar des Teams aus Florida

„Als er während der Final-Serie 2024 hier war, sagte ich zu ihm: ‚Ich plane, eine Spielerin aus Michigan zu verpflichten.‘ Als ich ihren Namen nannte, merkte ich, wie er sich veränderte“, so Ojeda: „Er war geschockt – geschockt, dass ich sie verpflichten wollte! ‚Ich kenne sie sehr gut, sie ist sehr nett‘, antwortete er mir.“
Albas Sportdirektor Himar Ojeda verpflichtete Emily Kiser im letzten Sommer

Kiser unterschrieb bei Alba, entwickelte sich zur Stammspielerin. Ojeda: „Ich habe erst später erfahren, dass sie dort zusammen waren. Insofern kann ich sagen: Franz war nicht direkt involviert. Aber er hat sicher gehofft, dass wir sie holen.“
Im College lag Emily Kisers Zimmer über dem von Franz Wagner
In der ZDF-Doku „The Wagner Brothers“ schlendern Franz und Moritz über das Uni-Gelände in Michigan. Als sie durch die Gänge der Schlafräume gehen, zeigt Franz nach links. „Das war mein Zimmer. Genau unter mir war Emilys Zimmer. Und sie hat dann immer den Ball hoch (an die Decke; d. Red.) geworfen. Das war dann das Zeichen ,Komm mal runter jetzt‘“, erzählt er. Und Moritz ergänzt lachend: „It’s time …“

2025 NBA playoff predictions, picks: Can Bucks overcome Pacers in six?
Will Hill FOX Sports Betting Analyst <!--> One week of the NBA playoffs is in the books.

Metcalf this offseason.But the Steelers […]
