Washington Wizards players train ahead of game against Orlando (from Washington's Twitter)

Russell Westbrook left, Bradley Bill injured and still: After 13 games from the start of the season, the Washington Wizards are leading the East with a marvelous 3:10 season opener, with tonight they are back from a 19-game backlog to a hard 100: 105 over New Orleans.

If last season Abdia suffered injuries and the Corona epidemic that hit the team hard, he opened his second season in the best league in the Israeli forward world in a great way.

Abdia, who at the start of the season recorded lukewarm games and rarely played in the fourth quarter, recorded his best game of the season tonight.

He did not come off the floor in the decisive quarter despite accumulating five fouls and rewarding his coach with a critical block and basket that turned the bowl over and gave Washington the lead.

The media in Washington praised Abdia for "his best game of the season" and for once again keeping the rival star, this time it was Brandon Ingram.

"I feel trusted," Abdia said after the game, "for a basketball player, it's the most important thing for him to feel trusted, it's the best feeling in the world. I just hope to continue like this."

Abdia played 27:35 minutes from the bench, most of the substitutes and also more minutes than two quintet players (Daniel Gaford and Aaron Holiday).

"His hard work is starting to pay off for him," said coach Abdia Wes Ansald Jr., "His minutes will come. Opportunities will come. His teammates trust him and he shows time and time again that he is a very reliable keeper. "The physicality he brings - these are things that are really, really good."

Spencer Dinwidi also praised Abdia's defensive abilities and said: "I think he becomes a great defensive player. As a young player, when you do the little things and play good defense, you get more minutes on the floor. I think he will get into the rhythm, gain confidence and also do. More moves on offense. "

"He (Abdia) is getting better from week to week and we're seeing it," Enseld added, "he feels more comfortable on the hardwood. He understands people trust him to make the right move. Let's be our defensive anchor. "And he will have more confidence in his ability. He continues to develop, it happens."
