Deni Avdija is having a really nice season in his first year with Portland, having come over from the Wizards in a trade in the offseason. He surely will be fired up to face his former team but averages 15.3 points on the season and played 34 minutes last night, so if this is a blowout I'd imagine Avdija is pulled pretty early as he's a part of the future and no reason to play him heavy minutes again on a lottery team. Our model has him at 15.5 points. I'd guess around 17-18 tonight.

Deni Avdija has been playing excellent basketball as of late but this is simply a massive line for the versatile forward. Even in a great matchup against a Wizards team that is terrible, a lot will have to go right for Avdija to eclipse this line including a shot usage distribution that is heavily in his favor. In most outcomes Deni stays under this line as I would fade him at this high of a number versus any opponent.
