It is still unclear whether Danny Abdia will remain on the Washington bench against Toronto as well (Wednesday-Thursday, 2 p.m.), or whether he will return to the top five.

Either way, the 20-year-old rookie won compliments for his performance against Chicago, in which he once again showed the variety of ways he can contribute to the game.



"He was good against Chicago, he coped well with the move to the bench," the athletic's journalist Fred Katz grumbled.

"He kept Zack Lavine well, for the first time this season he missed three free throws but he kept really good. I think he will become a very nice defensive player and that will help Washington. He still commits a little too many offenses, but the referees whistle him a lot because he is a rookie. "It looks good and he will probably have more opportunities from the bench to manage the game and make decisions. Not playing alongside Westbrook and Bill will allow him to show a little more of his qualities. I have no problem with him staying on the bench."



American journalist Ben Standing added on the Wizards After Dark podcast: "Danny is the second most interesting player on the team after Bill. If there's anything optimistic this season it's him and Roy Hachimura, it seems Danny could be a real part of the top five in a good team. We were worried about his shooting, But he's great out of the arc. I love his dedication and seeing him stay in that role. Yesterday he started on the bench, and it does not really bother me. I like to see what he can do with Smith's man instead of with Westbrook and Bill, "In the open field. Where will he go next? I hope he will help him reach an even higher level. For me, his development is almost more important than anything else, because if Washington improves it will be through these young guys."

The Locked On podcast also addressed the decision to bench Abdia.

Journalist Ben Mahitch said: "I was shocked by the change in the top five. Did it really help them win? It was a bit puzzling. I understand Scott Brooks is trying to refresh the team, but Davis Bartans? Really? It's one of the weakest teams on defense I've ever seen, and Bartans He's not a good defensive player. Abdia is one of the only normal guards on the roster, so the bench was pretty amazing. It's hard for a young player. The Wizards have already buried Troy Brown and I hope Danny Abdia does not have a similar thing happen. And what does that mean for the future? "Developing the young players and the base, Abdia has already shown that he is a promising player."



Mehitch added: "Fulfilled if Danny had a hard time shooting, but he's one of the best scorers on the team. He's hardly been drafted. He's the whole point of this season is to develop the youngsters and give the fans hope, anyway Washington is not going to win the championship anytime soon. "And Hachimura the keys, or at least increase their role? It's not a move that tells me they trust him. He should be given an even bigger role, especially when Russell Westbrook is out. But no. Instead, make a strange move and take him down to the bench."
