In one of the first conversations between Bradley Bill and Danny Abdia, the star told the Israeli: “You will have good days, bad days and days like this.” The game against Detroit tonight (Thursday-Friday), was one of those slightly less good days. Although Abdia played 32 minutes (second to Isak Bonga on the team), he scored only 7 points when he finished with 3 of 8 from the field, 0 of 4 from the three and 1 of 3 from the line.

“I need to play better,” he concluded Abdia After the loss 97:86. “In fact, we all need to play better. I did not hit outside the arc today and I was not aggressive.” In those times when the Washington rookie was aggressive, he provided beautiful moves, including three baskets in penetration.

Even before the fouls, Abdia finished a great outburst with a tough finish, which raised his NBA balance to 7 of 7 from the field. “Did he score it ?!”, the group reporter tweeted to NBC Quinton Mayo. The reporter, too Chase Hughes Enthusiastic about the basket: “A really nice move by Danny Abdia, he once again showed how mobile he is with the ball. There are not many players at his height who can run like that with the ball.”


In addition, Abdia handed out a great assist on the baseline that impressed the “Athletic” senior reporter John Hollinger: “Beautiful assist”. With all due respect to the assist, in the opening Washington reporters were mostly concerned with the fact that the diamond refuses to miss. “Abdia should never throw again and end his career as a player with the highest percentage from the field,” the reporter joked Fred Katz. When he missed his eighth throw overseas, Katz wrote: “Abdia missed. That’s what he needs to retire.”

In a slightly more serious tone, the NBA Analysis Network reporter, Brett Siegel, Analyzed the Israeli forward’s second preparation game: “Danny relaxed a bit in this game, but he looked very relaxed on the floor. His shots just didn’t come in.”

Bradley Bill, Who played his first game in nine months, recounted what happened in the locker room after the loss: “There is no doubt that Scott Brooks entered us, and not for the first time. He certainly conveyed his message.” At the press conference, by the way, Brooks Said the competition for the small forward position in the top five has not yet closed.

So what did Abdia’s competitors do tonight for a place in the top five? Bonga finished with 10 points and 7 rebounds in 33 minutes, Troy Brown scored 14 points in 22 minutes and Jerome Robinson finished with five points in 14 minutes. Davis Bartens has yet to play in the preseason, as has the team’s new quarterback Russell Westbrook.
