Danny Abdia with Washington Wizards fans (from the Wizards' Twitter)

A sense of disappointment for the Washington Wizards after failing to put together tonight (Saturday through Sunday) a fourth straight win, with the injured and shuffling Portland Trail Blazers achieving only its third away win of the season with 110: 115.

The guest came into the match without her two stars, Damien Lillard and C.I.

Jay McCollum, and even though Bradley Bill was absent from the Wizards, the team from the capital had a great opportunity to produce a streak, which she missed.

The frustrating part for Washington is that from now on the game board is only getting harder.

Although the next five games are at home, the next three are against Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Toronto - three teams ranked above the Wizards in the Eastern Conference standings.

Danny Abdia partnered for 20 minutes and settled for a lukewarm offensive evening with six points, four rebounds and one steal.



The Wizards have recently experienced a number of rotational changes, with in parallel with Bill's entry into the Corona protocol, Roy Hachimura and Thomas Bryant have returned from a prolonged absence and created a strain on the team's forwards and chins.

During the game, Abdia played in a quintet that included Raul Neto, Hachimura, Kyle Kozma and Monterey Harrell.

According to Chase Hughes, the reporter covering the Wizards, in such a lineup Abdia is the player in position 2, in which it is very rare to see him play: "Now that the Wizards have got some players back, there are a lot of attempts to mix and make adjustments."

Is this the beginning of a trend for the Israeli?

The new role of Abdia?

The Wizards' current lineup: Neto, Avdija, Hachimura, Kuzma, Harrell.



I believe Avdija is at the 2. Lots of mixing and matching as the Wizards work recent additions into their rotation.

On the defensive side, Abdia and his teammates failed to face the rising star of the Blazers - Anfrani Simmons.

"Portland was without its two stars in the guard positions, but maybe they have a star in the making," Hughes wrote of Simmons who impressed with 31 points and 11 assists, "he was hot recently and was unstoppable against the Wizards, with 26 points in the first half and seven threes from ten. "Attempts. He scored above all the defensive players, including Abdia."



Simmons, who is in top form, recently lost his grandfather and was even absent from the team's previous game to attend the funeral.

The promising guard said at the end that he was trying to help his grieving family: "I'm not the most emotional person in the world, the hardest part is being strong for them, getting on the pitch, playing well and putting a smile on their face to make them feel better."
