It was in the summer of 2014 when Leon Draisaitl said these two sentences that still stick with him today: “Who wouldn’t want to create a hype like Nowitzki did? I would do anything for that.” Draisaitl was 18 years old at the time and had not yet played a single game in a professional league, but he already knew where he wanted to go: Like basketball star Dirk Nowitzki, he wanted to become synonymous with an entire sport in Germany. A role model that would make children flock to clubs.
