Has he hit a “freshman” wall?

The most games he’s played before this was 18 games in Greece. It looks like he’s also still trying to adjust to the physical play. He’ll keep getting this type of defense until he shows he can handle it. Looking for refs to bail him out won’t work because basketball is turning into tag team wrestling.

I've seen many players "slump" once they get into ACC play. Competition

Or maybe this is his level of play against
nkhooch • 01/25/26 03:53 AM ET
Methinks how to defend him has been figured out. **

Any ideas on what is going on with Avdalas? Is it just a confidence mental
vtox1 • 01/24/26 10:52 PM ET
I have sources that can confirm the mental element is definitely a large

I’m from Philly. Nicer to him? Huh? He was/is a paid professional? No?**

I’m not sure what you being from Philly has to do with “fans”
SC_Hokie • 01/26/26 01:46 AM ET
Of course no one should send death threats. But be nice ? That’s silly**
JackDSML • 01/26/26 09:02 AM ET
If I can recall the word I used was nicer…
SC_Hokie • 01/26/26 04:23 PM ET
I think he's referring to Philly fans legendary warmth and hospitality

Agree. His threes vs ND he was square and straight up
hokiepro • 01/25/26 01:54 AM ET
Opponents have made adjustments to counter him. Our coaches need to make
MDHokie79 • 01/25/26 08:49 AM ET
