According to the press release, Obst signed a two-year contract until the summer of 2023.

“To play for FC Bayern is a great honor for me,” Obst said. “I have known Andrea (Trinchieri) and Daniele (Baiesi) for years, they helped me to take first steps in basketball. Now I will have the opportunity to play in the EuroLeague for the very first time, which played a major role in my decision.”

Obst, Trinchieri, and Baiesi met back in 2014 when all of them were working at Brose Bamberg.

Obst, 24, averaged 11 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 8.5 PIR in the previous EuroCup season.

He also helped his national team to clinch a spot in Tokyo 2020 Olympics. In the Olympic Qualifying tournament, he averaged 7 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 3.5 PIR.
