The Washington Wizards are scheduled to begin their NBA season Dec. 23. The season opener is always an exciting time for fans, but this year an entire country is likely to be cheering for the Wizards.
On Nov. 18, Maccabi Tel Aviv star Deni Avdija was drafted by the Wizards with the ninth pick. A pick that high in the draft holds a lot of value, but Avdija was still seen as a steal.
âWe were surprised to get him with the ninth overall pick because he was expected to go higher, according to many sources,â said Dave Johnson, the longtime radio voice of the Wizards. âI did not expect him to be available at our pick, and heâs considered by many draft experts to be one of the best steals of the draft.âÂ
