P.J. Washington Fantasy Stats

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) will be absent for a third consecutive game on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. He has landed on the shelf with a right ankle sprain and will get his next opportunity to return on Monday night in a meeting with the Brooklyn Nets. Naji Marshall is likely to keep his starting spot on Saturday and deserves fantasy attention. He is averaging 16.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.1 steals in a starting role this campaign.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) has been downgraded to out ahead of Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. Washington will miss his second game in a row after spraining his ankle during Saturday's contest. The Mavs will likely use a committee approach with Klay Thompson, Naji Marshall, and Caleb Martin to fill the void on Thursday. Marshall posted 15 points, seven rebounds, and two steals in 32 minutes of action on Tuesday. He's looking like a viable streaming option while Washington is on the bench. Thompson could also be worth a look, but he's more of a low-end option at the moment.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) is not expected to suit up on Thursday against the Utah Jazz, as the team has listed him as doubtful on the injury report. Washington dropped out of the lineup this week due to a sprained right ankle and is poised to miss a second straight game. Naji Marshall got a starting opportunity on Tuesday versus the Sacramento Kings and had a good all-around performance. Across 32 minutes, Marshall amassed 15 points, seven rebounds, one assist, and two steals. If Washington remains out on Thursday, Marshall is likely to log another start in a very attractive fantasy matchup against the NBA's poorest defense.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (foot) is considered questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Golden State Warriors. He exited the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets due to a sore right foot. Klay Thompson (knee) and Max Christie (illness) also didn't play on Tuesday, giving Jaden Hardy a starting role, while Caleb Martin logged 25 minutes off the bench. Thompson and Christie are expected back on Thursday, which would once more alter Dallas' rotation.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (foot) won't play on Tuesday versus Denver. He's coming off a rough showing, scoring eight points in Monday's loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. His next chance to play will be on Christmas against the Golden State Warriors. For now, Moussa Cisse, who was called up from the G League, could see some additional action, although it's unknown how productive he'll be on both ends of the floor. D'Angelo Russell may also be more involved, increasing his potential for fantasy managers.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) isn't ready to return to the lineup on Friday when the team visits the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Washington's absence leaves a clear lane for Naji Marshall, who logged nine points, seven rebounds, and six assists across 33 minutes in Monday's win over Denver. Marshall profiles as a short-term streamer for rebounds, defensive stats, and low-end scoring while Washington remains sidelined, especially with Dallas thin at the forward spots. His next chance to return comes Friday against Oklahoma City, the front end of a back-to-back set.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with Miami, putting him at risk of a third consecutive absence. Naji Marshall has absorbed most of the power forward minutes, producing 12.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.0 assists across his last five games and playing 33 minutes Monday.

If he sits again, Naji Marshall is positioned to draw another start. Marshall has averaged 12.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists over his last five games while shooting 48.7 percent from the field, and he logged 18 points, eight rebounds, and three steals in 37 minutes on Saturday.

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) won't play in Saturday's game against the Clippers. The 27-year-old was in line to suit up. However, he injured his ankle during pre-game warmups and was ruled out after the contest started. The Mavericks were already down Anthony Davis (calf), Dereck Lively II (foot), and Daniel Gafford (foot), meaning Dallas was without another big. Washington has played well this season, averaging a career-high 16.0 points with 7.8 boards, 2.3 assists, and 1.2 blocks. If he isn't available for Monday's game in Denver, Naji Marshall, who got the start on Saturday night, could continue to see more minutes.
