David Hein, who is following the German basketball for FIBA very closely talked again to the German national coach Dirk Bauermann about Chris Kaiman.

David Hein: The news that center Chris Kaman of the Los Angeles Clippers had German great-grandparents made big news here in Germany. Is there anything new on the Kaman-front to report?

Dirk Bauermann: There’s nothing new. I can tell you that we’re pursuing it, but that’s all I can say. It’s difficult because it’s such a long time ago with his great-grandparents. And there’s not a whole lot of time. The qualifying tournament is right around the corner. I don’t know. It’s wide open.

We will keep you updated on if or when Chris is German!
