After Franz Wagner was drafted by Orlando, his brother, Moritz Wagner re-signed with the team, reuniting the brothers and former Michigan basketball players.

It was pretty exciting when Franz Wagner was selected by the Orlando Magic last week with the eighth overall pick in the 2021 NBA draft.

For one, Wagner was the latest first-round pick and lottery selection for the Michigan basketball program, but also, it meant that Franz could potentially be teammates with his brother Moritz Wagner, another former Michigan basketball star.
