Finally waiting! This is the Lakers dream forward line. For Doncic, he is PJ Washington
12:30am, 14 August 2025【Basketball】
No one knows the wasp for four years, and the world knows it with one move.
It can be said that PJ Washington is the Mavericks' best deal in 24 years, even looking at the league.
How strong is Washington this season?
The total shots in the playoffs were 234, with a true shooting rate of 58%. Just in terms of real shooting rate, Jaylen Brown's digit is 59% and Middleton's digit is 58%.
defensive end, the match against Towns limits his shooting rate by 35%, the match against Alexander limits his shooting rate by 30%, and the match against Edwards limits his shooting rate by 37%.
In fact, among the Mavericks players who played for at least 100 minutes in the playoffs, PJ Washington's 1.5 defense is second only to Josh Green's 2.1.
To sum up, for Washington this season, we can define it as a front line that is both offensive and defensive.
What is the reason for the outbreak in Washington?
I think there are three points:
First, the Mavericks give you a chance. In terms of data, the average 32.2 minutes per game is the second highest in his career.
Second, work hard. In terms of shooting interference alone, the Hornets averaged 5.3 times during the game, but the Mavericks soared to 7.0 times per game.
Third, teammate bonus. This season, Washington made 99 shots with Doncic's 234 passes, with a shooting percentage of up to 56.9%.
Obviously, there are both its own and external reasons for the outbreak of PJ Washington. Of course, the two are more of a complementary existence.
Speaking of this, something interesting is coming.
According to the NBA China official website, the Heat are willing to listen to Wiggins' offer, and many other teams including the Bucks are interested.
For the Lakers, Wiggins is the coveted front line. In fact, Pelinka had negotiated with the Heat as early as before the NBA free agent market opened, but in the end, no deal was reached. This time, the Heat took the initiative to choose a trade, which means that the Lakers are still very likely to get Wiggins.
For Doncic, I think Wiggins is the existence of PJ Washington.
First, offensive end.
1. Washington accounts for 27.2% of the shooting rate and 40.3%, Wiggins's two-day numbers 29.1% and 39.3%;
2. Washington accounts for 27.3% of the shooting rate and 36.1% of the shooting rate and 26.0% and 35.8% of the two-day numbers 26.0% and 35.8%.
In other words, Wiggins can also have both off-ball like Washington.
Second, defensive end.
The body shapes are not much different, and the athletic ability is not much different. In fact, like Washington, Wiggins can also defend multiple positions. For example, he limited his shooting rate against Tatum by 37%, he limited his shooting rate against Harden by 17%, and Gobert by 51%.
Relatively speaking, I think the second point is the main reason.
In the new season, it is hard to say whether James can still retain the Lakers, Hachimura has average defensive effect, and Vanderbilt has great potential for injury. Therefore, the Lakers lack a relatively reliable defensive front line.
When we came from the Hornets to the Mavericks, Washington's defense was not optimistic, but who would have thought of changing the environment was like opening up the Rentong meridians. Wiggins, who has a better defense foundation, is obviously very expected to do this, so the Lakers' overall offense and defense will be relatively balanced.
Finally, considering the Heat's proactive trading, I think the Lakers are still very likely to win Wiggins.
