In 2009 he won the German U14 championship with BG Harburg-Hittfeld and played for the club in the youth basketball league (JBBL) in the 2009/10 and 2010/11 seasons .

From 2011/12 he wore the jersey of Piraten Hamburg in the youth basketball league (NBBL), for which he played until the end of the 2013/14 season.

He was signed by Hamburg Towers for the club's premier season in the 2nd Bundesliga Pro A ( 2014/15 ), but was mainly used for cooperation partner SC Rist Wedel during the season thanks to a double license. In the following 2015/16 season , the constellation remained the same, but Kindzeka missed the first few months of the season as a result of a wrist injury. He returned to the field in January 2016, but was forced to watch again a short time later with a knee injury.

In July 2016, the Towers announced that they had also given Kindzeka a squad place in the 2016/17 season . Due to his age, the game year was his last, in which he was also entitled to play for Wedel with a double license. With Hamburg, Kindzeka scored an average of 5.2 points in 22 games in the 2016/17 season, with Wedel he was the team's best thrower with 13.4 points per match (14 players). In the 2018/19 game year , he made it to the basketball Bundesliga with the Towers as champion of the 2nd Bundesliga ProA .
