The Next European Star Is Already Here…



The Next European Star Is Already Here…

Deni Avdija is having an incredible second part of the NBA season. In the month of March, the Portland Trail Blazers’ wing has done what only other 6 players in the league in the same period did: reaching top 50 in points, rebounds, and assists per game. In this video, BasketNews’ Augustas Suliauskas analyzes how the Israeli talent is tearing up the league.

    1. Deni avidija is not from Europe he is from a country called Israel witch is not even close to Europe
    2. Deni can’t be considered as the next big athlete until he has attracted the attention of a bigger team then the trailblazers
    3. The glaze is crazy

    For all the people that says that deni is not european but asian, technically speaking egypt is to the west of israel, would you consider egypt a western country, or more western culturely than israel?

    I dont think so, Israel is GEOGRAPHICALLY in asia, but have a western culture by all means, plus they are integrated into european sports system(i.e, FIBA, UEFA, etc.), so stop be like nobody knows it, everybody does, and the Israeli themselves are making fun of the situation for the most part already, so CULTURELY, consider us israelis as westerners/european by all means…

    You can't ignore his dedication. He's the kind of guy that looks and sounds like Kobe's dedication. Everyone says when people are leaving the court. Then he stays to shoot another 100 3-pointers. He's so dedicated it is insane and i hope he can keep it up. 100% an all star in the making.

    Shout out to Deni's Father, Zufer Avdija, he was a pro player, with a very high basketball iq, and is currently one of the premier youth coaches in Israel.
    An Old School tough as nails Coach, that is an incredible teacher of Basketball.

    Anyone who played 2K franchise has this guy on the radar could literally guard 1 through 4 and made a mismatch for every team play basically or it was a nightmare to play against
