Danny Avdia will remember his game tonight against San Antonio for a long time.

The Israeli, who has simply flourished since the trade that sent Roy Hachimura to the Lakers and freed up more minutes for him, recorded a career high of 25 points and led the Wizards to a sixth consecutive victory with a crushing 106:127 at Gregg Popovich's San Antonio.

Avdia started the game on the bench but got 33 minutes, more than any player in his team and justified the credit he got on the floor.

Avdia missed his first two shots, but has since made all 10 of his next shots and also grabbed 9 rebounds.

"A great night, my teammates helped me a lot, I feel like they want the best for me," Avdia said after the game, "I will continue to be aggressive, and take advantage of my physicality and advantages on the court. KP (Porzingis) is like a brother to me, we talk a lot, He is always there when needed and I hope we will continue our friendship."

The media in Washington praised Avdia and wrote: "He looks like a new man and a different player in the last few games since Hachimura left. Regardless of the numbers, Avdia behaves differently in the attack. He is not afraid to penetrate and has much more confidence in his role in the team."

"I'm learning how to get better. I was told that I need to use my body more correctly," added Avdia, "I worked a lot in the gym and learned how to take advantage of my size. I will have more moves in the future. Right now I really like my progress and hope it continues." .

And Abadiah is indeed improving and since Hachimura left he is averaging 16.3 points on 58 percent from the field as well as 9.5 rebounds and 1.8 steals.
