Washington and Danny Avdia met tonight (between Tuesday and Wednesday) this unknown and thin Memphis staff, which consists of several bench players and several players who were bounced from the G League – and lost to it 109:97 outside. Avdia finished with 16 points (6-for-10 from the field, 0-for-3 from three, 4-for-7 from free throws), 4 rebounds, an assist, 3 turnovers and a plus-minus index of -13 in 36 minutes.
Precisely after two consecutive victories, including the dramatic 108:110 in Miami, Avdia and his friends returned to Surm against the young and improvised group of the Grizzlies and missed an opportunity to achieve a third consecutive victory for the first time this season. Although he scored 60% from the field, the Israeli provided an unimpressive ability, like the rest of his friends, who dropped to a 54:11 balance and returned to last place in the East. From the most impressive victory of the season to the most jarring loss – in two days.
The first half was a catastrophe for the team from the capital of the United States. The Wizards humiliated themselves and the hungry bears led 42:67 at the break, with Avdia having 7 points and the lowest plus-minus index in the match, -28.
5:24 minutes to the end Kyle Kuzma shrunk to 94:88, but the guests were not moved and got five big points from Kennard (13 points and 8 assists in total) who raised it to 91:101 and bounced Larabia for a dunk that made it 91:103 2: 32 minutes to go and closed the game. The standout of the game was Jamison, who in his 14th NBA appearance scored 24 points on 11-of-13 from the field, while Jay Morant and the rest of the stars cheered on the sideline. Jackson contributed 19 for Memphis, who tied the game 43:23 in 13th place in the West.
Kuzma led the loser’s scorers with 24 points (10 of 19 from the field) along with 7 rebounds and 5 assists, Corey Kispert scored 22 (8 of 11) and Bilal Coulibaly 11 at 25%. Jordan Paul finished with 10 and Tyus Jones, who was applauded in his return to Memphis, stopped at 4 points (1 of 9) along with 9 assists and a turnover. Centers Marvin Bagley and Rishawn Holmes continued to be absent and the guests lost the rebound battle 53:28 (17:4 in attack).
Avdia, who has seven straight games with at least 14 points, will hope to get his team back on track against Houston on Thursday and Friday and also break the 20-point mark for the first time since his 43-point game in New Orleans before the All-Star Game.
