Daniel Wenas height - How tall is Daniel Wenas?

After months of being a free-agent, speculations and discussion arose on which team Wenas will be playing for the upcoming season. Along with his free-agency, the league was transitioning into a new era with many of the older, more established team such as Stapac Jakarta withdrawing out due to not having enough experience player in their roster as many of the players were called to play for the national team. In late October, Louvre Surabaya, a new expansion team for Indonesian Basketball League officially announce Wenas as their first ever player and expected him to be the cornerstone of the new team. Wenas made his debut for Louvre during 2019 Indonesia President's cup.

Building the success from the previous season, Wenas and his team went on to the United States for training camp at Impact Basketball that was located at Las Vegas, Nevada for one week. Despite winning the championship, Pelita Jaya decided not to bring back neither of their 2 foreign players from the previous season and used their draft picks to draft a big-guard, Wayne Bradford from Davenport University and big man, Merril Holden from Iowa State University. Holden was however, replaced by e.x. Los Angeles Lakers's player, C. J. Giles during the off-season. During the same off-season, Pelita Jaya signed Xaverius Prawiro whom ended up becoming the MVP of the 2017-18 season and another valuable, versatile big man in Valentino Wuwungan. This season, Wenas was promoted as their starting Shooting Guard and started the season strongly, posting a consecutive double-double on January 4 and January 5, 2018. However, his game declined towards the end of the season. Despite this, his team still won league's best 16–1 record and entered the playoff again as the first seed in the White Group. Wenas again faced Aspac, this time led by Kore White in the semi-final and nearly losing to them in an overtime game 3, elimination game. The final was a rematch from last year, however, this time Satria Muda Pertamina Jakarta was powered by Indonesia's naturalized national-team player, Jamarr Johnson and dominant big, Dior Lowhorn whom defeated Wenas and his team in 3 games. During the playoff, Wenas' role diminished so much that he did not scored a single point throughout the entire playoff and making this arguably his worst performance of any series during his career.

During the off-season of 2018, Wenas weighed his options on whether to return to Pelita Jaya or sign with a new team. After months of speculation, on October 8, 2018, Wenas finally announced his decision to join the newly, reformed Bogor Siliwangi whom had just relocated to Bogor from Bandung through his Youtube Channel. He explained that his primary reason for not renewing his contract with Pelita Jaya is to be able to get a bigger role and more playing time; something that Pelita Jaya will not be able to accommodate, especially after signing Wenas' old high school teammate, and the reigning Sixth-man of the Year in Andakara Prastawa. Despite Siliwangi being the worst team in the previous season with 0 win, Wenas believed that this will be a challenge worth taking and also an opportunity for him to prove himself that he can be a national-team level player. He performed very strongly during the pre-season with an average of 14.25 points, 9.0 rebounds and 3.25 assists to go with 1.75 steals in 32 minutes of playing time. He finished the season averaging career-high in points and minutes played, his team however, missed the playoff making this season the first time in Wenas' career to miss the post-season. Wenas, along with all the members of Bogor Siliwangi became a free-agent in mid-2019 due to the club's dismissal. The cause of the dismissal was mainly due to financial and many of the players' salary were lately paid.

In February 2018, Wenas was selected to participate in 2018 Asian Games Test Event and made his official senior Indonesian National Team debut defeating Timor Leste 135–30. Indonesia managed to earn gold medal for the Test Event by beating India, 78–68 in the final.

The 2015–16 season was a transitional season for the Indonesian's professional basketball league as they re-branded themselves back to Indonesian Basketball League. Development Basketball League(DBL) discontinued their management rights of the league. PERBASI then appointed Starting5 Sports Entertainment to manage the league and hired Hasan Gozali as the commissioner of the new league. It was during this year that Wenas started transitioning from his usual small forward position to playing both guard positions. His coach, Fictor Roring occasionally trusted Wenas to run the team offense as their backup point guard behind the veteran, Wendha Wijaya. On April 29, 2016, Wenas scored a career high 24 points and career high 6 steals to go along with 8 rebounds and 4 assists. With high expectation, Garuda entered the playoffs as the 5th seed with a 22–11 record and were matched up against the 4th seeded Satria Muda Pertamina Jakarta team that was led by Arki Wisnu. Garuda however was eliminated in two games in a best-of-three format.

Towards the end of the off-season of 2016, Wenas, despite expressing his reluctance to leave Garuda Bandung finally requested a trade to his old team, Pelita Jaya. He claimed that he had tried to stay loyal to the team despite not being paid 3 months worth of salary due to the team's then financial struggle. However, it was no longer possible for Wenas to stay with Garuda from his financial standpoint. He was then traded to Pelita Jaya for future all-star, Januar Kuntara. Wenas was also joined by his old coach, Fictor Roring as he was hired by Pelita Jaya to be the General Manager of the team. This was also the year where IBL finally allowed each team to draft 2 foreign players. Pelita Jaya used their picks to draft a guard, Martavious Irving from Kansas State University and Kore White from University of South Florida. That year, Wenas experienced a decline in almost all of his statistics as he took a lesser role than when he was during his time with Garuda Bandung. His team however, entered the playoff as the first seed in the White Group and was immediately qualify to play in the Group Stage Final. Wenas helped his team to swept Aspac Jakarta in 2 games and went on to face the Red Group's champion, Satria Muda Pertamina Jakarta in the final. Pelita Jaya won game one, 63 to 57 however, they lost game two and with the season on the line, Pelita Jaya willed themselves to win the series 72 to 62 against their long-time rival and winning their first ever championship at the IBL-NBL Era.

After missing the whole of 2013–14 season, Wenas signed with a new team Garuda Bandung. He made his debut for Garuda on December 3, 2014 against Pacific Caesar Surabaya scoring 6 points off the bench. Later that month, Wenas was selected to Indonesian National Team to compete in 2014 ASEAN University Games at Palembang, Indonesia. Wenas helped Indonesia to win the gold medal by defeating Thailand in the gold medal match. He scored a career high, 23 points and made 4 out of his 6 3-point attempts to beat Hangtuah Sumsel with the final score of 67–52. He finished the season averaging 6.3 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.8 steals and 0.2 block. Garuda entered the playoff as the fifth seed and was matchup against the fourth-seeded Aspac Jakarta in the first round. Garuda was defeated by Aspac 51–68. They then played against Stadium Jakarta in the losing bracket before losing to them 52-58 and thus eliminated from the playoff.

He helped Indonesia to win the gold medals for both 2014 ASEAN University Games at Palembang and 2016 ASEAN University Games at Singapore, both times defeating Thailand in the final.

Wenas returned to Pelita Jaya for his second season and scored a season high 18 points again, against NSH Jakarta on January 16, 2013 and brought his team to a 73-38 blowout win. He ended the regular season with an average of 5.6 points, 1.8 rebounds, 0.45 assist, 0.45 steal, and 0.08 block. He then helped his team reached the 2013 NBL Final to play against Aspac Jakarta led by his former high-school teammate, the rookie of the year, Andakara Prastawa. During the final, Wenas only played 10 minutes and scored 4 points as his team was eliminated with the score of 50 to 63.

During a daily practice in late August 2013, Wenas suffered a torn ACL and lateral meniscus and had to miss the whole of the upcoming season. He had a surgery done in early September at Moro Lorenzo Sports Center @ Ateneo de Manila University located at Quezon City, Philippines.

Wenas was immediately recruited to play professionally for Pelita Jaya after graduating high school and during his freshman year at Perbanas Institute. He made his professional debut on December 11, 2011 against JNE Bandung Utama and scored 8 points together with 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals in 16 minutes. He scored a season high 17 points 118–64 victory on February 1, 2012 against NSH Jakarta. He finished his rookie season averaging 5.7 points, 2.6 rebounds, 0.8 assist, 0.8 steal and 0.1 block, playing mainly as the backup Small-Forward for the team.

Wenas returned to SMA Negeri 3 Jakarta in 2010 to complete his education. Despite still being in the basketball team, he and the other senior members were not allowed to participate in national competition to focus on their academics. During this time, he was also selected to Indonesia National Team for Asean School Games 2010.

In 2009, after cruising through the semi-final by beating SMA Theresiana from Semarang with the score of 97-46, Wenas and his team managed to again played in the final, however, this time they were matched against SMA Anandafrom Batam at the famous BritAma Arena. Despite playing together with future Indonesian Basketball National-Team Star, Andakara Prastawa, SMA 3's weak defense was exploited and the score was even at 41 at half time. However, SMA 3 closed out the game with an 82-81 win through Prastawa game winning free-throw, and grab the 2009 Pop-Mie Basketball National Championship.

In 2008 during his sophomore season, his team went to the final and played against SMA 9 from Bandung.
