The Dallas Mavericks made another splash this offseason, as they signed P.J. Washington to a four-year, $90 million extension. It's a move long overdue, as Dallas now secures one of their top difference-makers from the 2024 NBA Finals run. Plus, it debunks any trade rumors, as Dallas can't trade Washington for the six months of his new contract.
Washington, along with Daniel Gafford, was in some trade speculation this summer, as some media outlets suspected either one of the following players could be dealt. Some analysts even came up with their own trade proposals, as one idea suggested the Mavs deal Washington for Jaden Ivey.
