The last few weeks are the best in Danny Avdia's career.
Tonight (between Saturday and Sunday) it was reflected again, when the Washington Wizards beat Indiana and the Israeli again excelled with 16 points and 6 rebounds with great percentages from the field (7-8).
Although Kyle Kuzma was still absent, Avdia, who in the last game went up in the top five, went down to the bench, but that didn't stop him from playing 30 minutes and continuing to excel.
Since Roy Hachimura left the team, Avdia is averaging 15.3 points (50.5% from the field, 40.6% from three), 7.9 rebounds and 2.1 assists in nearly 30 minutes in nine games.
It was Avdia's 13th career game with 16+ points, and the most efficient in terms of percentage (87.5%).
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Israeli managed to take control of a ball that had almost eluded him and release a hard shot with the buzzer that somehow went in, symbolizing in a great way the period that the forward is going through.
Wizards fans commented: "Danny is in a great time right now. Everything he throws in the basket goes in," others wrote: "It's unbelievable that he even managed to throw it. He's full of confidence."
Also on the official account of the NBA they uploaded Abdia's impressive basket.
Last week Avdia reached 1,000 rebounds in his career, and today he reached 1,500 points in the NBA.

Washington coach
Wes Anseld Jr.
said about the game: "We scored pretty well, the message was not to be complacent when it comes to shooting."
Bradley Beal, who excelled with 32 points, added: ": "The most important thing right now is the health of the players.
This is our team, we can't make changes now (after the deadline)."
