On Wednesday, September 3, NBA insiders announced that PJ Washington signed an extension of $ 90 million of $ 90 million. The PF had another year over his deal and has now been signed in the long term. Moreover, Washington is now eligible for trade in the 2025-26 season. On the way to next season, it will be interesting to see that Dallas will start on the Line -Up.
The team will be without PG Kyrie Irving to start the year. Dallas signed D’Angelo Russell and Dante EXUM to fill in for Irving until he returns. Cooper Flagg and Anthony Davis are undisputed starters. With the money that Dallas Washington gave, it feels like he will also be a starter. There are reports in the competition that Flagg could start at SG for the Mavericks this year. That would bring Washington like SF, Davis to PF and Derrick Lively in the middle. That is four out of five players in the starting line-up that are six or larger for six feet.
