"Punch them in the face," is how Davis Bertans said of his "12 straight points" in the second quarter.
.
Today, when the Wizards faced the Philadelphia 76ers at home, center Thomas Robinson was absent due to injury, but Rui Hachimura and Bertans, who started for the second time this season, perfectly filled the vacancies in the penalty area. At the end of the first quarter, the 76ers took a double-digit lead 33-22. However, the nine-finger sharpshooter Bertans' shooting touch was completed. He scored 12 points in a row and led a 16-2 offensive to directly regain the lead.
.
In the first half, Bertans was on full fire, hitting all 8 shots including 6 three-pointers and scoring 22 points, which also allowed the Wizards to regain their competitive intensity. In the second half, he added another outside shot, setting a career high with 7 three-pointers in a single game. His 25 points in a single game were a new season high and the second-highest in his career. The almost perfect shooting performance made Hachimura couldn't help but praise: "He is the best shooter I have ever seen in my life." (Note: Don't forget that Bradley Beal is also in the Wizards)

There are two players in the NBA today who lost a finger due to an accident when they were young. One is the "Slam Dunk King" Gerald Green who is recovering from injury, and the other is Bertāns who switched from the Spurs to the Wizards this season. Oddly enough, although these two players have different playing styles and positions, and their physical abilities are vastly different, one of their shared strengths is that they are both "accurate from the outside."
Like today, Bertāns extended his streak of 20 points in a single game to the second game, and also reached a 20+ scoring record for the fourth time this season, helping the Wizards defeat the Hornets by 7 points.
It is worth mentioning that Bertāns started from the bench in all 13 games this season, but his playing time in each game reached 26.9 minutes. As a tough extension fourth position, although his mobility is slightly lacking, his attitude of never being stage frightened and his outside shooting are deeply trusted by coaches. During his time with the Spurs, Coach Pop often publicly praised Bertāns, and his teammates also loved the tall man from Latvia. However, due to Morris' own goal in signing the contract, Bertāns came to Washington.
But at least for now, it seems that he has found his own place in the Wizards. It is also expected that Bertāns can continue to use his sharpshooting to help the team in the next schedule and write his own unique "Nine Finger Legend" ”.
