Career

Obst started his career at his home club USV from his hometown and from 2011 played in the youth basketball league (JBBL) in the youth team of TSV Tröster from Breitengüßbach , which is part of the youth program of the then German champions Brose Baskets from Bamberg . In the following year, the German U16 national player moved up to the junior team in the youth basketball league (NBBL) and was already used in individual games of the men's team in the third-highest German division ProB 2012/13 as a 16-year-old . However, the Güßbacher failed as defending champions in the NBBL final at the team Urspring. Even with the men's team of Güßbacher at the end of the season, Obst remained unlucky, who were relegated in the ProB relegation round. For the following season, fruit was therefore used in the 2013/14 ProB at the newcomer Bike-Café Messingschlager from Baunach , another cooperation partner of Brose Baskets. The Baunachers surprisingly managed to move into the play-off final series as the main round eight and thus as runner-up in the ProB the promotion to the next higher division ProA . Obst, who was also appointed to the southern selection at the All-Star Game of the NBBL 2014, was already one of the top performers of the ProB team with an average of more than 20 minutes playing time and won Division B in 2014 with the German U18 selection promotion to Division A of the best European junior teams; together with his national team mate Mahir Agva , Obst was appointed to the selection of the five best players of the tournament in the "All-Tournament Team".

In addition to appearances in the NBBL junior team, in the ProA 2014/15 , Obst not only made regular appearances in the Baunach farm team , but also made his first appearances in the top German basketball league at Brose Baskets thanks to a double license under the new coach Andrea Trinchieri . In his eight short appearances in the first half of the 2014/15 basketball league , Obst was sent out onto the field once as a member of the “ Starting Five ”. In addition, Obst had five short appearances in the first group phase of the European club competition Eurocup 2014/15 .

At the U20 European Championships in Helsinki in 2016, he reached fourth place with the German selection and posted the highest point average within the DBB team in the course of the tournament.

In the 2016/17 season he played for Bundesliga club Gießen 46ers - Bamberg had loaned him to Hessen. In summer 2017 he was signed by Bundesliga newcomer Oettinger Rockets . In August 2017 he was part of the German national student team for the 2017 Summer Universiade in Taipei . At the beginning of November 2017 he was called up to the German senior national team for the first time and made his debut in the World Cup qualifier against Georgia at the end of the month. This made him the first debutant under national coach Henrik Rödl , who previously took over from Chris Fleming .

With the Rockets he missed the Bundesliga relegation in the 2017/18 season. With an average of 10.9 points per game, Obst was the Thuringian top performer. During the summer break of 2018, he moved to the Spanish first division club Obradoiro CAB . In his year in Spain (2018/19), Obst scored an average of 7.4 points per encounter in 31 games.
