For the club's first addition of the summer, ratiopharm Ulm signed big man Chris Sengfelder to a two-year deal on Wednesday.
Sengfelder (2.05 meters, 30 years old) comes off an outstanding season in France with JDA Dijon. He averaged 11.3 points on 40.3% three-point shooting and 4.2 rebounds in domestic action to help the team reach the playoffs, where they fell 2-1 to eventual champion Paris Basketball. Sengfelder posted similar numbers in the FIBA Europe Cup in leading Dijon to the semifinals.
The big man has spent most of his professional career in his native Germany after playing college basketball at Fordham University and Boise State. After his college career, Sengfelder played one season for Lowen Braunschweig, five for Brose Bamberg and another for Telekom Bonn before his move to France. He was a long-time member of the German national team and helped it win the bronze medal at EuroBasket 2022.
"Ulm was my absolute dream club because for me it combines everything that is important: sporting ambitions, individual development, great fans and closeness to my family," Sengfelder said. "I can't wait to put on the Ulm jersey and give it my all to achieve the club's sporting goals."
