Washington Wizards suffer a 114-90 defeat to Cleveland, Avdia shows improvement
In a disappointing replay of their game from two days ago, the Washington Wizards were defeated by the Cleveland Cavaliers with a score of 114-90 on Friday night. Despite the loss, forward Danny Avdia showed a little better ability this time around.
Avdia played 26 minutes and finished with 13 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and a block. However, he also had 3 turnovers and a plus-minus index of -22, the lowest in the contest. The Wizards previously beat Ohio 140-101 on Thursday, during which Avdia scored 7 points.
Overall, the Wizards lost the battle of rebounds, with Cleveland outperforming them 114-67 in the last two games. Only one other Wizards player, Tyus Jones, scored more points, with 16 in total.
Donovan Mitchell led the Cavaliers with 26 points, starting strong with 11 in the first quarter. The Wizards struggled in the second and third quarters, allowing the Cavaliers to build a significant lead.
Despite the loss, Avdia and his teammates will have the opportunity to bounce back when they host the New York Knicks on Saturday night.
