Despite only being in Dallas for a few months, the former Mavericks' starter has a strong belief in his previous organization
before Game 2 of the Mavericks-Thunder series. He gave his thoughts on his former teams, their futures, and why he wasn't surprised by the trade to Charlotte at the trade deadline.
Dallas traded Grant Williams, Seth Curry, and a future first-round pick to the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for P.J. Washington in February, a move that set the Mavericks on the course they're on now, with Washington being a better on-court fit with his hometown team. He's scored 56 total points in Games 2 and 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Oklahoma City Thunder and was a big reason the Mavericks were able to win both games.
The move to his hometown of Charlotte has been better for his statistics. Williams hadn't played well in Dallas, averaging just 8.1 PPG while shooting 41.3% from the field after signing a 4-year/$53million deal with the Mavericks in the 2023 offseason. After playing just 47 games for the organization, he was traded to Charlotte and has averaged 13.9 PPG while shooting 50.3% from the floor there.
