My Take
P. J. Washington is the kind of player who quietly earns your respect before you even realize you're watching him. A Louisville kid who went through the Kentucky Wildcats program and got drafted 12th overall by the Charlotte Hornets in 2019 — that's a real pedigree — and he backed it up by landing on the NBA All-Rookie Second Team in 2020. He's always struck me as a do-everything forward who doesn't need the spotlight to contribute: he can knock down a mid-range jumper, bang in the post, and switch onto guards without making a big show of it. His move to the Dallas Mavericks felt like exactly the kind of fresh start a guy with his versatility deserves, and watching him play alongside Luka Doncic, I think the best of P. J. Washington is still ahead of him.
