ratiopharm Ulm and center Nicolas Bretzel reached an agreement to remain together for another season, the club announced Tuesday. Bretzel (2.13 meters, 25 years old) is entering his seventh season with Ulm, which he joined at the same time as club legend Per Guenther in 2008. He averaged 3.7 points and 1.6 rebounds in 15 BKT EuroCup games last season.
Bretzel joined the club's youth program and made his first team debut in the 2017-18 season. In 46 EuroCup games with Ulm, Bretzel has averaged 4.1 points and 2.0 rebounds. He helped Ulm win the German League in 2023 and reach the EuroCup Quarterfinals in 2022 and 2023.
"I'm looking forward to being able to play another year with the teammates I already know. I also see Ulm as a good location in Germany where you can develop both physically and as a player - even after all the years I've been here," Bretzel said after the agreement. "With the new coach [Ty Harrelson], there will also be new training methods, and a lot will change tactically too - a good opportunity to continue to improve."
