2024 Fantasy Outlook
Washington went from playing for a struggling Hornets team to reaching the NBA Finals with the Mavericks after a mid-season trade before the February deadline. Washington performed well for Dallas, averaging 11.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.2 steals in 32.2 minutes during the regular season, and he was even better in the playoffs, where he notched 13.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.5 steals-plus-blocks per game. However, he shot only 42.7 percent from the field and 34.8 percent from three-point range. Washington's starting role in the Mavericks' frontcourt is not under any threat, but don't expect him to be a go-to player on offense, as Dallas will probably rely on Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson to contribute in the scoring column. Washington should average double-digit points again and have a decent upside as a forward option across all formats. Still, he seems to be a complementary piece rather than a dominant fantasy performer. Washington should have a decent floor for the forward position, particularly due to his defensive contributions. However, he doesn't have a lot of upside in an offensive scheme where he'll play a secondary role. Read Past Outlooks

After finally coming to terms on a new three-year deal with the Hornets following a stalemate in negotiations, Washington has a home for the 2023-24 season. He finished as a top 100 player during the 2022-23 season, averaging 15.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, 0.9 steals, 1.1 blocks and 2.0 three-pointers in 32.6 minutes per night. Although he has basically been a top-100 asset for the past three years, his role figures to take a bit of a hit this season. Miles Bridges will return to the lineup, while Mark Williams will play as the starting center. With Brandon Miller and Gordon Hayward also figuring to see ample playing time, Washington's opportunities could be scaled back a little. He should still see upwards of 25 minutes on most nights, which could make him valuable in standard leagues, though mostly as a streamer. The bigger impact could come when analyzing Miller's short-term upside. It is not clear exactly what the starting lineup will look like once Bridges returns from his 10-game suspension. Until we are given some clarity, managers can view Washington as a potential last-round flier.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Extension with Dallas likely?
The Mavericks are likely to extend Washington's contract this offseason, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line.
ANALYSIS
Washington is slated to earn $14.1 million in the final year of his contract in 2025-26, but after the team secured an extension for Daniel Gafford on Monday, it seems that they will turn their attention towards Washington. The forward was a key piece for Dallas in 2024-25, appearing in 57 regular-season contests with averages of 14.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 blocks and 1.1 steals on 45.3 percent shooting from the field.
