Wizards to expand global presence with new Israeli digital platforms

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Washington Wizards are expanding their footprint in Israel by launching a team website in Hebrew and the NBA’s first Israeli Instagram account. Prior to the start of the 2020-21 season, the Wizards were the first NBA team to launch an Israeli Twitter account. These platforms will provide exclusive content featuring Wizards forward Deni Avdija and the entire Wizards team to fans in Israel.

"The Washington Wizards are excited to introduce our new Israeli social platforms,” said Monumental Sports and Entertainment President and Chief Commercial Officer Jim Van Stone. “We are committed to growing the game of basketball and connecting fans all over the world, so expanding our reach in Israel with the addition of Deni is a perfect opportunity to extend our global efforts.
