The Mavericks' P.J. Washington trade is aging like fine wine for Dallas while Charlotte is left holding the bag.
At the 2024 trade deadline, the Dallas Mavericks turned their season around after landing P.J. Washington in a trade with the Charlotte Hornets. Grant Williams hadn't panned out like Dallas expected after acquiring him in a sign-and-trade that offseason, so they sent Williams, Seth Curry, and a first-round pick to the Hornets for Washington and two second-round picks.
Washington has been excellent for Dallas on the floor over the last year and a half, and when looking back on the trade, it's clear that the Mavericks got the better end of the deal.
