While Washington is experiencing its best period since the season opener, Danny Abdia is in the midst of his toughest weeks since arriving in the NBA.
The young Israeli did not score a single point against Boston last night (Sunday to Monday), for the second time this season, and this is what his last seven games in the best league in the world look like:
3 points in 21 minutes against Denver
2 points in 11 minutes against Portland
8 points in 23 Minutes against the Lakers
0 points in 12 minutes against the Clippers
2 points in 20 minutes against Denver
2 points in 21 minutes against Minnesota
0 points in 7 minutes against Boston
against the Celtics Abdia recorded a negative record this season in minutes, and continued to lose his status when not a partner For a second in the second half.
In the Locked On Wizards podcast tonight, journalist Ben Mahich referred to the Israeli's decline and said: "7 minutes, it's horrible. Danny Abdia, one of the most talented players on this roster, is only 20. 7 minutes ?! This is a very dubious decision by Brooks. In the sequels - how they use Abdia. He just came to the United States, he's young, the NBA is new to him, they have to raise their confidence. They have to do a better job in acclaiming him, because a player his age, with his abilities - he can be a cornerstone. "At this club. But he's starting to get Troy Brown's treatment."
Brown, who usually gets between 15 and 25 minutes at the start of the season, is also starting to lose his status.
Against Boston is not a partner at all, having received 5 minutes in the previous encounter against the Celtics, 4 against the Los Angeles Clippers and 16 against Denver on Friday.

Mehitch added: "The upcoming games are huge to develop young players, Scott Brooks must let them learn from their mistakes. Abdia is allowed to make mistakes, he does not play enough and does not throw enough. "He's more on offense. I'm not in the locker room, I do not know how Brooks treats his players, but one must wonder - Abdia has gone from being a five - man player to getting crumbs off the bench, and that makes you ask if he is being treated properly."
"Ultimately, no matter what happens this season, whether they reach the playoffs or not, the most important thing is to develop the youngsters like Abdia and Roy Hachimura," Mahich added.
"It will be interesting to see what Brooks does now. I love that Bonga got minutes, but as much as I appreciate his effort on defense, he scored 0 of 5 in completely free threes, no one was even close to him. Expect very tough games now, against "Memphis, the Clippers, Philadelphia and Milwaukee, and I think the next five or six games are going to be very crucial to the balance. If the Wizards win just one game, they'll find themselves at the bottom of the East again. That's a very important point this season."
