Avdija racked up 22 points (6-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 9-14 FT), nine rebounds, 11 assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Friday's 124-118 loss to the Lakers.
Avdija came one rebound short of a triple-double, tied Damian Lillard for the team lead in scoring and finished with a game-high 11 assists. The downside was eight turnovers. He's still the hub of the Blazers' offense, and Portland's strong 6-2 start runs largely through him.
