Victor Moritz "Moe" Wagner (born 26 April 1997) is a German professional basketball player for the Orlando Magic of the National Basketball Association (NBA).[1] He played for Alba Berlin[2] before moving to the US to play college basketball for the Michigan Wolverines from 2015 through his junior season for the 2017–18 Wolverines team. Wagner entered his name for the 2017 NBA draft without hiring an agent, but withdrew and returned to Michigan. He was selected with the 25th overall pick in the 2018 NBA draft by the Los Angeles Lakers.

He was a 2018 All-Big Ten second team selection by both the coaches and the media. Following the season, he was the 2018 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament MVP helping the team earn the Big Ten tournament championship for the second time in a row. He was also named to the West Region All-Tournament Team and Final Four All-Tournament Team during the 2018 NCAA basketball tournament. He has represented the Germany national team. His younger brother Franz Wagner is also an NBA player as well as his teammate, playing small forward for the Orlando Magic.

Early career

[edit]

Wagner started his basketball career in the youth ranks of Alba Berlin. In 2013–14, Wagner played for the club's under-19 Bundesliga squad,[3] which won the German championship.[4] In 2014–15, he played on Alba Berlin's Bundesliga roster, appearing in four games of the German league, scoring 2.3 points per contest.[2] He also played in two Euroleague games during the 2014–15 season.[5]

College career

[edit]

Wagner first came to the attention of University of Michigan head coach John Beilein in 2014 through an email from a former coaching acquaintance in Germany.[6] Wagner also used social contacts to forward a self-made highlight video to Beilein.[7] Ultimately, Beilein flew to Berlin to recruit Wagner.[6] In April 2015, Wagner announced his decision to attend the University of Michigan and play for the Michigan Wolverines.[8] By opting to go to college, he turned down an offer to play professionally.[9]

Freshman season

[edit]

On March 16, 2016, in the First Four round of the 2016 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament, Michigan defeated Tulsa, 67–62. After blocking two shots all season, Wagner posted four blocks and had a season-high eight rebounds against Tulsa.[10][11]

Sophomore season

[edit]

Wagner's five steals in the March 9, 2017 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament opener against Illinois was a single-game high for the tournament.[12] Three days later, Michigan won its first Big Ten tournament championship since 1998.[13] On March 19, Wagner's career-high 26 points helped Michigan defeat Louisville 73–69 to advance to the Sweet 16 of the 2017 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.[14][15] For the season, Wagner started all 38 games and averaged 12.1 points and 4.2 rebounds per game, while shooting 39.5% on three-pointers.[16] He finished the season as the team's leading rebounder.[17] Following the season, he was an honorable mention All-Big Ten selection by both the coaches and the media.[18][19]

On April 10, 2017, both Wagner and teammate D. J. Wilson declared for the 2017 NBA draft, but did not hire agents, which gave them until May 24 to withdraw their names and retain their athletic eligibility to return to Michigan.[20] Declaring early enabled him to participate in workouts with NBA teams and made him eligible for an invitation to the May 9–14 NBA Draft Combine.[21] On April 30, 2017, Jeff Goodman of ESPN reported that he was invited to the NBA Draft Combine.[22] On May 24, 2017, Wagner decided to pull out of the 2017 draft and return to Michigan for the 2017–18 season.[23]

On March 2, Michigan defeated Nebraska 77–58 in the quarterfinals of the 2018 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament. Wagner recorded his seventh double-double of the season with 20 points and 13 rebounds. His 13 rebounds marked a single-game high for the 2018 tournament through the first two rounds.[32][33][34] The following day, in the semifinals of the Big Ten tournament Wagner scored his 1,000th career point, becoming the 54th Wolverine to reach the milestone. He finished the game with a team-high 15 points and eight rebounds in a 75–64 victory over the second-ranked Michigan State Spartans.[35][36][37] In the March 4, 2018 Big Ten tournament championship game against Purdue, Wagner scored 17 points to help lead Michigan to their second consecutive Big Ten tournament championship.

For the season, Wagner averaged 14.6 points and 7.1 rebounds and shot 52.8% overall and a team-best 39.4% on his three-point shots.[48] On March 21, Wagner became an Academic All-Big Ten honoree.[49] On April 14, 2018, Wagner announced that he would enter the 2018 NBA draft and hire an agent.[50][51] On May 1, Wagner signed with Roc Nation's Joe Branch, who has represented former Michigan teammate Caris LeVert.[52] Later that day, he received an invitation to the NBA draft combine.[53]
