2025 Fantasy Outlook
Last season marked Avdija's first away from Washington - the franchise that drafted him No. 9 overall in 2020. His role was expected to decline in Portland. At first, it did. The forward came off the bench for 18 of his first 30 appearances, seeing just 26.4 minutes per game. However, he became a full-time starter from Dec. 28 onward, averaging 19.7 points and 1.9 threes on 49/37/78 shooting, 8.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 32.6 minutes. Impressively, Avdija reached both career highs in assists-included usage rate (23.8%) and true-shooting percentage (60.5%). Arguably, the biggest stride in his game was creating for himself off the dribble to finish at the rim. He took 6.2 free throws per 36 minutes, which ranked 12th in the NBA, and was up from his prior season of 4.4 free throws per 36. With Anfernee Simons now in Boston and Deandre Ayton on the Lakers, a lot of usage has opened up in Portland. Some of that will presumably go to Scoot Henderson, Shaedon Sharpe and Jrue Holiday. But Avdija may be able to expand his role more, too. At the very least, Avdija should be able to maintain what he accomplished across the whole of last season - 16.9 points, 7.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.0 steals in 30.0 minutes. Assuming that's the case, Avdija projects as a top-75 fantasy player. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $55 million contract extension with the Wizards in October of 2023. Traded to the Trail Blazers in July of 2024. 
Lone bright spot in offense
Avdija totaled 22 points (7-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-11 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 114-95 loss to the Spurs in Game 5 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
ANALYSIS
Avdija was the only first-unit player to register more than 10 points in Portland's season finale. The team was clearly outmatched, and although it was successful in containing Victor Wembanyama for most of the game, he put the game out of reach, helped by a spirited performance from Julian Champagnie and the rest of the starters. There will likely be significant changes to Portland's roster in the offseason, but Avdija will remain the team's centerpiece. Avdija achieved career highs in several categories this season, averaging 24.2 points, 6.9 rebounds and 6.7 assists over 66 regular-season games.

The No. 9 pick in the 2020 Draft, Avdija showed some flashes of breaking out at the end of the 2022-23 season and carried it over into a stellar 2023-24 campaign. The Israeli forward was one of Washington's best players last year, averaging 14.7 points, 7.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.5 blocks and 1.2 threes per game. That was inevitably going to happen when examining the Wizards roster last year, but it remains to be seen how he'll look in Portland. The Trail Blazers traded for him in the offseason, and they have a much deeper rotation than Washington. Both clubs are terrible, but Avdija will have to battle Anfernee Simons, Jerami Grant, Scoot Henderson and Deandre Ayton for touches. Those four players are probably better than anyone on the Washington roster, which will likely lead to a slight decline for Avdija. We didn't even mention Shaedon Sharpe, which has us wondering if Avdija will even start this season. With that said, this is a 23-year-old forward coming off a career year, and he could be one of the focal points of the Blazer's offense if they continue to go into rebuild mode. With so many questions surrounding Portland, reaching for Avdija could be risky, but he could certainly outperform his ADP if handed 30-plus minutes a night.
