P.J. Washington Could Play Friday Against The Cavaliers
2 days agoDallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee, illness) left during the first half of Wednesday's game against the Rockets and was unable to return, but the veteran forward may be able to play on Friday after getting a questionable tag for the home matchup against Cleveland. Washington missed one game on the Mavs' recent road trip due to suspension but returned with a strong game on Monday with 28 points against the Kings. He had just six points and three rebounds when he left after just 16 minutes on Wednesday, and he could get more work while the Mavs look to fill in for Luka Doncic (calf). If Washington is unable to play, Maxi Kleber (oblique) would get more work if he can play through his own questionable tag. If both veterans are out, Dwight Powell and Olivier-Maxence Prosper would have to fill in more minutes at power forward.
