Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Iffy for Tuesday
PJ Washington (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.Following a seven-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, Washington appeared in each of the last four contests, logging at least 30 minutes on each occasion. While Washington isn't dealing with any reported setbacks with the ankle, the Dallas Mavericks are heading into a back-to-back set for the first time since his return, and he could be in line for a maintenance day after handling a 31-minute workload in Monday's 120-101 win over the Nets. With Anthony Davis (adductor) already ruled out Tuesday, the Mavericks would likely lean more heavily on Naji Marshall, Max Christie, Klay Thompson and Kessler Edwards to fill minutes at forward if Washington also ends up sitting.

Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Efficient display in win
PJ Washington notched 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Monday's 120-101 victory over the Nets.With Anthony Davis back in action and serving as the power forward while Kai Jones started at center, Washington moved to small forward and failed to score at least 20 points for the first time in three games. Washington attempted only 12 shots in this game, compared to at least 16 in the previous three outings. Even if his numbers decrease slightly, Washington should remain one of Dallas' most reliable offensive options, particularly with how depleted the team is.

Mavericks' P.J. Washington: Dominates in return to lineup
PJ Washington (ankle) registered 29 points (11-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 12 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 32 minutes Sunday in the Dallas Mavericks' 130-125 loss to the 76ers.Suiting up for the first time since March 1 after missing the past seven games while recovering from a right ankle sprain, Washington took on a huge role right off the bat for a depleted Mavericks squad. The veteran forward handled a team-high 32.5 percent usage rate -- well above his season-long rate of 20.3 percent -- and he combined the extra touches on offense with an efficient shooting performance to turn in one of his better scoring performances of the season. Assuming he experiences no further setbacks with his ankle, Washington could be primed for a huge finish to the season for a Dallas squad that will likely be without Anthony Davis (adductor) through at least early April and Kyrie Irving (knee) for the remainder of the campaign.
