After the surprise win over Kyrie and Durant on Sunday, Washington and Danny Abdia returned early in the morning (Wednesday) to Surem with a 132: 121 loss to Portland.
The Wizards dropped to a 13: 4 balance this despite 37 points from the league's king of baskets, Bradley Bill.
After the lukewarm game against the Hunts, Danny Abdia also took down Rust with a good game, which included 13 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists in 23 minutes on the floor.
At the end of the game, Abdia, who had not played basketball for three weeks due to the league's rigid corona protocol, told the media about the feeling of being a bit disconnected.
"It was not easy to be without basketball for a few weeks," said the Israeli rookie. "I was at home with the family, watching movies or playing with friends and encouraging them."

"In the first game I was not yet in pace and fit but today I was already strong, I pushed harder and I was more focused. The return was not easy because I did nothing for two weeks. There are great coaches around me who help me get back to playing as fast as possible. "Mine was not good, I tried to do my best but I was not 100 percent. Today I came all concentrated. I just pushed harder to help my team. I had no problem with strength, I gave everything I could physically."
Abdia expanded on the days of the Corona: "True, it was not easy. You are alone here, with some family members, and when with the Corona you can not go out, be at home all day, far from the country, and still everything is new to you, suddenly you are not with your group. Yes, it was difficult, but we are moving on. "
On the 13th loss of the season: "I hate to lose and it sucks a bit for us. We just go over the mistakes we made, we push forward every day and work especially hard. I really believe in this team, we are really a very good team and we have to take our time and be "I believe that soon everything will be connected."
On the shooting practice at the end of the game against the Nets in which he won 15 minutes: "I would always do it at the end of games. It's mainly to clear my head. There are a lot of distractions around. We won a game, and there are not simple moments where I want to be with myself and work "My game. Today I felt very good, both physically and mentally. It's hard to lose, but it's part of the process."
