Deni Avdija Upgraded To Available In Favorable Spot
2 months agoWashington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (heel) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Thursday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. Off the floor for Washington's last three matchups with a left heel contusion, Avdija is back and will suit up on Thursday. The 23-year-old playmaking forward has been up and down in his fourth season for the Wizards, hovering around the top 100 in points leagues for fantasy purposes with 13.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.1 treys per game over 55 contests. It's unclear if Avdija is facing any form of minutes restrictions in his return, and while this matchup carries some blowout risk, the Lakers are yielding the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing small forwards on DraftKings in 2023-24. Make sure to get him active in season-long leagues.
