Israeli player Deni Avdija contributed significantly to the Portland Trail Blazers' decisive 123-103 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night, improving their season record to 7-3 in the NBA. Avdija delivered another strong performance, scoring 24 points, dishing out eight assists, and grabbing six rebounds, continuing his remarkable start to the season.
Avdija has now scored at least 15 points in all ten of Portland's games this season, a feat achieved by only seven other players in the entire league. This consistency highlights his stable performance and his emergence as the primary offensive focal point for the Trail Blazers. Notably, apart from a 15-point game against San Antonio, Avdija has consistently scored 18 points or more in every other game this season.
He is in exclusive company, alongside Luka Dončić and Stephen Curry, as the only players to reach this scoring threshold in every game they've played. The list also includes other prominent NBA players such as Alperen Şengün of Houston, Austin Reaves of the Los Angeles Lakers, Jalen Brunson of New York, Tyrese Maxey of Philadelphia, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of Oklahoma City.
This impressive streak stands in contrast to some of the league's biggest stars, including Victor Wembanyama, who has scored 12 points twice this season, Nikola Jokic, who had 13 points in the season opener, and Devin Booker, who was limited to just three points in a game against Oklahoma City.
For Avdija, being part of this elite group, which includes some of the NBA's top talents, further solidifies his growing status in the league. His consistent high-level play throughout the early part of the season demonstrates his importance to the Trail Blazers' offense.
