Washington had one season left on a contract that was to pay him $14.1 million.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old Washington was the 12th overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft out of Kentucky. After spending parts of his first five seasons with the Charlotte Hornets, he was dealt to the Mavericks in Feb. 2024<\/a> and helped Dallas reach the NBA Finals that season.<\/p>\n

Last season, Washington played 57 games and averaged 14.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.1 steals per game in over 32 minutes a night. He shot 45.3% from the field and was a 38.1% shooter from 3-point range.<\/p>\n

Washington was also one of only eight players last season to average at least 1 steal and 1 block among players with at least 50 games played.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dallas Mavericks forward P.J.
