Ole Wendt (born October 5, 1992 in Kiel , Schleswig-Holstein ) is a German basketball player and coach. The former junior national player and first division player had to end his professional competitive sports career at the age of 23 for health reasons. His greatest successes include two fifth places for the U-20 European basketball championship , the runner-up in the NBBL and, with Phoenix Hagen, reaching the play-offs for the German championship in the basketball Bundesliga 2012/13 . After his active career, the student at the University of Paderborn also works as a junior trainer for the Paderborn Baskets. Ole Wendt has an identical twin brother, Lars , who also became a professional basketball player.

Career

Wendt started playing basketball with his twin brother Lars in his hometown of Kiel and then played for the Itzehoe Eagles until 2008. In 2008 both switched to the youth boarding school of the then first division club Paderborn Baskets at the Reismann-Gymnasium Paderborn . There they played in the youth basketball league for the U19 selection of the Paderborn Baskets and in their first season they reached the TOP4 final tournament in Berlin with the other selection players Robert Huelsewede and Dominik Malinowski in 2009 . After a victory over the previously only title holder Team Urspring in the semifinals, they lost the final game for the championship against the offspring of host Alba Berlin , who only took the lead in the last two minutes. In the following two years they also reached the TOP4 tournament, but were eliminated in the semifinals against Team Urspring. Wendt was a member of the northern selection of the NBBL All-Star team several times , which competed against the southern selection in the prelude to the BBL All-Star Games . With the U20 national team, he reached fifth place at the European Junior Championships in 2011 and 2012 under the then selection coach Frank Menz .

After Ole Wendt had been active in the 2009/10 season with a double license for the cooperation partner of the Paderborn Baskets and regional league team Benslips Baskets from Salzkotten, he moved up to the squad of the Paderborn Baskets in 2010, which meanwhile only played in the second division ProA . After getting an average of over 15 minutes per game in the first year despite his involvement in the NBBL team, he was able to increase his play to over 20 minutes while improving his effectiveness in the ProA 2011/12 and was the youngest player by expert forums seen among the five best German players this ProA season. After the end of the season, Ole and his twin brother Lars went their separate ways, who went to the next lower division ProB to the Schwelmer Baskets , while Ole moved to the highest German division basketball league to Phoenix from Hagen . In its first season in Hagen, the team reached the club's first play-off participation in the 2012/13 basketball league when they lost eighth in the main round with a positive season record in the quarter-finals to defending champion Brose Baskets . In the following season, Wendts stagnated game shares, for which he had to compete with Niklas Geske , among others . At the end of the 2013/14 season , when the team clearly missed the play-offs in a good tenth place, Wendt injured himself long-term, whereupon his contract in Hagen expired without extension. In the first division relegated s.Oliver Baskets from Würzburg , Wendt tried his hand at a comeback under long-time Paderborn club coach Douglas Spradley in the ProA 2014/15 , but only lasted nine championship appearances. While the Würzburg team achieved immediate promotion, Ole Wendt had to end his professional career. The following year , Wendt enrolled at the University of Paderborn and, after obtaining the B-Trainer license, also became a junior trainer at the Paderborn Baskets, for which he had previously been active. From the 2017/2018 season, Ole Wendt was a coach and then a player in the second team of the Paderborn Baskets in the 2nd regional league. During the summer break of 2019, Wendt switched to the regional league club BBG Herford as a player .
