This was not the way Washington wanted to end his season, but he wasn’t alone. Both he and Dereck Lively II were held scoreless in this game despite both playing more than 20 minutes. Washington missed all five of his shot attempts, while Lively missed each of his two shots. Both found other ways to contribute in the box score, but this was an abysmal offensive performance for them. Washington and Lively will both be starters for Dallas again next season, and this one game isn’t enough for managers to be concerned about them next year, especially with Kyrie Irving coming back.

After three straight games in which he only attempted seven shots, Washington was back in double figures in that category on Wednesday. He didn’t have the best night shooting the basketball, but seeing PJ more involved was a positive for fantasy managers in active leagues. Dallas is in a position where they only need one win to lock up the final play-in spot in the West. With the Raptors visiting on Friday, that appears to be a good matchup for the Mavericks and Washington.

Washington and Martin have been upgraded from probable to available, and both played in Friday’s loss to the Clippers. Their roles should not change much, if at all. Washington will remain in the starting lineup, with Martin likely playing around 20 minutes off the bench.
