Dallas Mavericks forward PJ Washington has agreed to a four-year, $90 million contract extension with the franchise, agent Kevin Bradbury of LIFT Sports Management told ESPN.
Washington had one season left on his deal for $14.1 million and now secures an extension that keeps him in Dallas through 2029-30.
Washington’s four-year extension means the Mavericks have reached agreements with all key members of their roster eligible for new deals this offseason, including All-Star Kyrie Irving and center Daniel Gafford (three-year extensions).
Washington joined the Mavericks at the NBA trade deadline in February 2024 and was a key part of the team’s run to the Finals that season, starting in all 22 games during the 2024 playoffs. In 2024-25, the 27-year-old averaged 14.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 blocks, 1.1 steals and shooting splits of 45.3% from the field and 38.1% on 3-pointers.
Washington was one of just eight players to average 1 steal and 1 block last season among individuals to play at least 50 games, according to ESPN Research, and he posted 14 double-doubles after having 10 combined over the previous three years.
The Mavericks enter the upcoming season with arguably the best frontcourt in the league, headlined by Anthony Davis, Cooper Flagg, Dereck Lively II, Washington and Gafford.
