The return of the Washington Wizards and Danny Abdia to the floor will wait a little longer. The NBA announced early in the morning (Wednesday-Thursday) that the game scheduled for Friday-Saturday night – against Yannis Antocompo’s Milwaukee Bucks – has also been postponed. This is the sixth game in a row in Washington that has been postponed, in light of the spread of the corona within the club.

Even before the postponement of the game became known, Washington announced that Danny Abdia would miss is one of the six players on the team who are still in isolation. Meaning: If the game had taken place, the Israeli would not have been at the disposal of coach Scott Brooks.

Washington reportedly had eight players available for a meeting with the Bucks – the minimum required to play in the NBA these days, but General Manager Tommy Shepherd’s intervention led to a relegation from the league. Washington did not want to go into the game with just eight players after not being able to train properly at all lately in light of the spread of the corona.

After training, during the virtual-traditional press conference these days, Bradley Bill He has already expressed his desire to postpone the away game against Yannis Antecompo: “To return to play after 11 days without training properly – this is a recipe for injury. We will fight for the postponement of the game. We will try to convince the president of the players’ association Michelle Roberts.”

By the way, apart from Danny Abdia, the other Wizards players who in any case could not take part in the game against due to the Corona Protocol are Davis Bartans, Roy Hachimura, Troy Brown Jr., Ish Smith and Moritz Wagner. Also, Russell Westbrook would continue to be absent due to injury.
