Abdia has reached 1,000 points in the NBA and receives compliments: "Unrealized offensive potential" | Israel today

2022-04-07T07:27:17.072Z


The forward recorded a landmark after just two seasons in the best league in the world and received a signed ball from his teammates in Washington after the loss to Atlanta • NBC journalist Chase Hughes praised the Israeli: "What he showed us on defense, at only 21, makes me think his overall ceiling is quite high."


The Washington Wizards will end the season without a place in the NBA playoffs but can be encouraged by the way they are playing in the last straight.

Although tonight (Wednesday to Thursday) the team from the capital surrendered to Atlanta 118: 103 but again saw quite a few beautiful things from a number of players that are being built for next year when of course the one who catches our eye is Danny Abdia.

The Israeli forward finished the game with 9 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, recording an impressive milestone and reaching 1,000 points at the end of his second season in the best league in the world.

Abdia who played 34 minutes, more than any player on his team received a nice gift from his friends who signed the game ball for him.

Abdia uploaded a photo of the ball to Story on Instagram, writing: "Wow, totally grateful. Dreams really come true."

The one who particularly parodied tonight's loss is NBC's Chase Hughes journalist who commented on the actor's progress in recent weeks since the crisis he had in March.

"Since the three-point streak with no points in mid-March, Abdia has shown some of the best basketball of his career and scored almost 40% for three, reminiscent of how great his attacking potential is. But when he was selected in the draft, he was considered a player with a particularly high ceiling on the offensive side. "

Hughes added: "I talked to some NBA executives who said they did not see his defense before the draft, and that made me feel good - because I did not watch it either. I saw a 2.05-tall guy who moved well without the ball, with game vision and passing ability Good, but he has a lot of offensive potential that has not yet been realized and I think everyone agrees on that. High value for the group. "
