I was totally unfamiliar with him before the trade, but after watching some highlights I am excited about what he can bring to the team! I liked Brogdon as a veteran mentor for our guards, but Avdija looks like great addition to the young core.

Avdija will bring the necessary shooting to stretch the floor. Too many times our offense broke down and the opposing defense were able to suffocate and stagnate us, and allowed them to key in on our playmakers. As surprising as Toumani was last season, we need a credible release valve. Defenders were sagging off of our non offensive guys.
