The Washington Wizards lost tonight (Saturday) 105:89 to the New York Knicks in the last preseason game at Madison Square Garden.
The one who has not yet taken part is the Israeli Dani Avdia, who as I recall is recovering from a hip injury and is expected to be fit for the start of the season in five days.
The 21-year-old forward went on the floor before the match and did an intensive 25-minute personal training session, during which Israeli fans who came to the game especially for him cheered him on and sang songs for him.

In the game itself, the Israeli's team was unable to deal with the new star who landed in the Big Apple Jaylen Branson who scored 27 points.
Mitchell Robinson scored 20 and RJ Barrett added 19 of his own.
For the team from the US capital, the one who continues to impress in the preparation games is the Japanese forward Roy Hachimura, who once again excelled with 20 points and 8 rebounds. Bradley Beal, who also suffered an injury in the preparation games, played and scored 16 points with 5 rebounds and 5 Assists.
