2021-22 Wizards player evaluations: Kristaps Porzingis can put up numbers, but his chemistry with Beal will be even more essential next season

Kristaps Porzingis was traded to the Washington Wizards at the trade deadline from the Dallas Mavericks last February in exchange for Spencer Dinwiddie, Davis Bertans and a future second round draft pick. Today, we will review his season.

Stats

Since Porzingis played most of the 2021-22 NBA season with the Mavericks, I will focus only on his time in Washington. During his 17-game period as a Wizards player, Porzingis averaged 22.1 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.5 blocks per game. He shot 47.5 percent from the field, close to his full-season career-high of 47.
