On Saturday night, the Washington Wizards will host the San Antonio Spurs in what will be their 41st game of the season.
The exact midpoint in a particularly bad season, in which Danny Abdia's team has managed to win only seven games so far.
The "Washington Post" compiled a summary of the team's last half of the season, and marked the development of the youngsters as the only bright spot: "It may not win them games soon, but the category in which the Wizards have the most good things to present is probably player development. Despite the bad season, At least Dani Avdia and the other young people are making progress."

"Take Avdia for example."
They analyzed in the newspaper: "He has become a more consistent rebounder, this leads to more possessions in the game. In addition, he finishes much better in the paint, and this also leads to better percentages from the field, which increased from 4.9% last season to 54% this season."
Cory Kispert and Bilal Koulibaly also received compliments: "Kispert releases his shots faster from 3, and tries more to reach the paint. Koulibaly copes well on defense and his 3-point shooting is better than expected, in fact, with his 38% he is the fourth player in this statistic Among all the players of the first season in the league."
