Playing career

He began playing professionally with Eisbären Berlin in the 2008–09 season. He played with Berlin's junior team in the third-level Oberliga for four seasons. Following the 2016-17 [DEL season|2016–17] season, Braun opted to leave the only organization he had played with, signing a one-year deal with fellow German club ERC Ingolstadt on June 21, 2017.
Braun contributed with 18 points in his first season in Ingolstadt before returning for a second year with the club in the 2018–19 season. Limited by injury, Braun collected just 6 points in 37 games, before opting to leave the club at the conclusion of the post-season.
On 10 April 2019, Braun agreed to a one-year contract with his third DEL club, the Krefeld Pinguine.
In his third season with Krefeld Pinguine in 2021–22, Braun, as team captain, posted 6 goals and 18 points through 42 regular season games. He was unable to prevent Kreleld from suffering relegation to the DEL2 for the first time in their history.
As a free agent, Braun opted to remain in the DEL, joining Grizzlys Wolfsburg on a two-year contract on 12 May 2022.
