Danny Avdia doesn't stop: Washington's Israeli player set a new career record in the NBA tonight (between Monday and Tuesday) and led his team to a sixth consecutive victory, a crushing 106:127 in San Antonio.
Avdia scored a career-high 25 points on a fantastic 10-of-12 from the field and also added 9 rebounds, an assist, a steal, a block and two turnovers.
Avdia missed both of his shots, so in fact he recorded 10 consecutive shots in this game without a foul and for good reason he got the most playing minutes in his team (33) even though he started the game on the bench.
Avdia has actually continued his tremendous momentum since the trade that sent Roy Hachimura to the Lakers and in his last four games he is averaging 16.3 points on 58 percent from the field as well as 9.5 rebounds and 1.8 steals.

How significant was this victory?
San Antonio is admittedly a weak team, but this victory broke a streak of 22 losses against the rival from Texas and Avdia was a very important screw in this victory.
Bradley Beal added 21 for the winners while Kristaps Porzingis returned with 17 points and 9 rebounds.
Washington, which rose to a 26:24 record and climbed to ninth place in the Eastern Conference, lost the first quarter, but exploded in the second, leading 55:63 and never letting go of its advantage.
Caldon Johnson scored 26 which didn't help Gregg Popovich's team.
