THIS Is The Dallas Mavericks’ Secret Weapon
P.J. Washington was a key part of Mavs head coach Jaosn Kidd’s rotation at the back end of last season, and was one of the big reasons why the Mavs made it to the 2024 NBA Finals. Coming into his second year with the Mavs, can Washington elevate his play alongside Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson as the defensive stopper in the starting lineup? After being traded for Grant Williams, Washington settled right in and became a big energy guy, and Mavs GM Nico Harrison made one of the best trades of his young career. On this Mavericks news and rumors video, we discuss Washington being the secret weapon to the Mavs’ roster this year.

PJ Washington on what he worked on during the 2024 NBA offseason:
“My ball handling, being able to rebound the ball and just push and be another outlet. Being able to shoot off the dribble. Pretty much everything. Working on finishing through contact. Just trying to be a better three-level scorer and trying to be a better playmaker.”

PJail
i went back and watched again most of the Mav's playoff run on 2024. PJ does three things very well on defense. 1. He stays down on shot fakes better than almost anyone I've seen. 2. He keeps his hands in tight until the shot goes up so he doesn't get cheap reach in fouls. 3. He bodies up his man w/o fouling, which is an important defensive trait. NBA players like Ant and Shay can get around any defender. The key is to make those guys work very hard to get the chance to burn you. PJ by doing the things he does well makes the other team's star work for it.
