If PJ Washington only played the Oklahoma City Thunder, he’d be 50 spots higher on this list. Washington was traded from Charlotte where he was just another name to Dallas where he made a name for himself in the postseason.

Washington’s combination of shooting, size, and athleticism makes him an ideal power forward, especially paired with Luka Doncic and Dereck Lively… oh wait, that’s right. Washington is still a key piece of the Mavericks as they focus on defense, size, and physicality but how he’ll be able to generate offense without only Kyrie Irving as a primary initiator remains a tough puzzle to crack.
Either way, Washington has proven he can contribute in significant ways to teams with title aspirations. The best part of his career is only getting started.
