Avdija Wizard's Highlights

Israeli-Serbian forward Deni Avdija has game, averaging 12.8/6.3/3.8 this season. Last night he went 24/11/4 against the Celtics. The 6'9" forward has a rep as a solid defender although that wasn't evident last night. 

Let's examine some highlights last night. 

Here he leaves Jaylen Brown behind while attacking the rim. 


He showed requisite NBA range. 


He moves without the ball well. 


He attacks and veers into the defender to create contact and finish.
