CHARLOTTE, N.C. – P.J. Washington couldn’t wait for the Dallas Mavericks to arrive at their team hotel in Charlotte on Monday afternoon.
“Coming back (Monday), I went straight home,” Washington said. “I got to see my kids, I got to see the family.
“So, it was great to be in the home setting and just having a good night at home.”
Washington was in his fifth season playing for the Charlotte Hornets when they traded him to the Dallas Mavericks on Feb. 8. It was a good news bad news trade for Washington in that he left the franchise that drafted him for a chance to return home where he played his high school ball in Frisco.
