"We'll pause for a moment to say a good word about a bad team that will soon be erased from our memory," Lowe wrote, "The Washington Wizards keep losing, but Avdia has shown he's a very good player - tougher and more decisive than he was last season. Since February 1, he He's averaging 18.7 points on 52.4 percent from the field - including 41 percent from beyond the arc. He's also shooting more threes, but not enough given the fact that he's shooting over 40 percent. He seems to have gotten over the hesitation he had that caused him to be unsteady."
Lowe also wrote about Avdia's numbers in recent weeks: "He reaches the penalty line an average of 4.5 times per game and before that was sent to the line 2.9 times. He finally attacks, realizing that he is a 2.06 meter tall and strong player. If he sees a player shorter than him on the way to the basket, he passes His way". He penetrates the basket 13.5 times out of every 100 positions and in doing so he also improved the average which was 8.9. He's always been a good defender and rebounder, he's barely 23 years old and he's a very valuable player on a contract like this."
