Earlier this week, Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington signed a four-year, $90 million extension with the team to keep him in Dallas through the end of the 2029-2030 season. Mavericks fans are thrilled about this move, as it nails down one of the most stacked frontcourts in the NBA, and since this move activated a six-month trade restriction for Washington, that means that he will remain in Dallas for the entire 2025-26 season.
