vdija didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The fourth quarter is where it broke open — love 25' 3pt jump shot (13 pts) (avdija 9 ast) (+2.8). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
By the time he checked out for good, Avdija's line read +17.1 — earned, not held.
