P.J. Washington Jr.'s Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) isn't expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Warriors. The former Hornet is battling a knee sprain. Unfortunately, it appears he'll miss his fourth-consecutive game on Tuesday night. If that's the case, Naji Marshall, averaging 12.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in three starts this season, remains a viable fantasy option in any format.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) will miss his second game in a row dealing with a sprained right knee. The former Charlotte Hornet has been part of the starting lineup throughout the start of the season, but will make way for Naji Marshall while he remains on the sidelines. With Dereck Lively II (shoulder) also watching from the sidelines, Daniel Gafford will also see more minutes. Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Dwight Powell will see some opportunities off of the bench, but they serve as streaming options in deeper leagues.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) won't play on Wednesday versus the Chicago Bulls. The 26-year-old logged 35 minutes in Monday's loss to the Pacers. Unfortunately, he was observed favoring his right leg late in the contest. There's a chance his absence may extend beyond Wednesday night. If that's the case, it would be a tough blow for the Mavericks. With Dereck Lively II (shoulder) questionable and Maxi Kleber (hamstring) out, Naji Marshall, who had 20 points in 34 minutes versus Indiana, could be in line for more action.

Dallas Mavericks power forward P.J. Washington did not play in Monday's preseason game versus Memphis due to left hip tightness. It doesn't sound like a serious issue for Washington, but this might not end up being the only game he sits out, as the Mavericks won't want to take any risks ahead of the regular season. The team is already dealing with several injuries. Washington proved to be a great mid-season pickup for the Mavericks last term and should enjoy another fine campaign in Dallas. He averaged 11.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.2 steals after moving from Charlotte to Texas. There should also be room for improvement for the 26-year-old, as Washington's shooting numbers dipped a bit on his new team.

Dallas Mavericks forward/center P.J. Washington continued to struggle from downtown in Game 2 against Boston on Sunday, but he still ended up as the team's second-best scorer behind Luka Doncic. The versatile big man finished a 105-98 loss with 17 points on 6-for-13 shooting. He was 1-for-5 with the three-ball and has now hit 9-for-40 overall from behind the arc since the start of the Western Conference Finals. The Mavericks could really use Washington's three-point bombs right now, having averaged only 93.5 points in the Finals. In Sunday's Game 2, the former Hornet also recorded seven rebounds with one assist and one block in 40 minutes.
