As a sign of sportsmanship, Deni Avdija is making the case that Russell Westbrook didn't actually foul him to decide the game for the Portland Trail Blazers' one-point overtime win against the Sacramento Kings.

No, Avdija's case is that he's an All-Star this season.

The Blazers have a legitimate All-Star in Deni Avdija

Portland's win over Sacramento was just the latest example of his star impact. Avdija has officially reached the point where you think he's having a quiet game only to finish with 35 points, five rebounds, and five assists.
