As NBA teams fine-tune their rosters ahead of the 2025–26 season, the Dallas Mavericks find themselves navigating a critical stretch without one of their biggest stars. With Kyrie Irving expected to miss significant time due to a torn ACL, the Mavericks are actively exploring ways to fortify their backcourt rotation. One intriguing trade scenario gaining traction involves acquiring Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey in exchange for forward P.J. Washington—a deal that could shake up both teams' short- and long-term plans. Trade Details and Rationale The hypothetical deal, proposed by Cem Yolbulan of Detroit Jock City, is designed to give Dallas an infusion of young talent while allowing Detroit to gain a seasoned forward on an expiring contract. Team Receives Mavericks Jaden Ivey Pistons P.J. Washington Yolbulan explains the logic behind the move by stating: 'If Detroit is hesitant to offer an extension, moving Ivey now could be a viable option.' (H/t: Sporting News) Dallas Mavericks' Urgent Backcourt Needs Jaden Ivey (Image via Getty) Irving's absence creates a glaring gap for Dallas. While the franchise signed D'Angelo Russell to a two-year, $11.7 million deal, questions remain about depth and consistency in the backcourt. The current rotation includes Klay Thompson, Dante Exum, Brandon Williams, Jaden Hardy, and Max Christie—names with upside but also uncertainty. Acquiring Jaden Ivey could help stabilize that unit. At just 23 years old, the Purdue alum has already shown flashes of star potential despite a recent injury setback. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Emergency Generators in Latacunga: (Prices May Surprise You) Emergency Generator | Search Ads Search Now Undo A broken left fibula limited him to just 27 games last season, but his career numbers remain impressive.

For the Dallas Mavericks , it's a calculated risk that could yield high rewards if Ivey returns to full strength. What P.J. Washington Brings to Detroit In return, the Detroit Pistons would receive P.J. Washington, a 26-year-old forward who has been a consistent contributor for Dallas. Averaging solid numbers and defensive versatility, Washington has been part of the Dallas Mavericks' core for over a season. However, with his contract expiring, Dallas may not be willing to commit long-term—making him a logical trade chip. Valued at $14.2 million annually, Washington could fill a frontcourt need in Detroit while giving the team additional flexibility next summer. Outlook for Both Teams • Dallas adds a young playmaker who can potentially grow into a cornerstone alongside Luka Doncic and others in the long term. • Detroit gains a dependable veteran presence who can slot in immediately and possibly become a mentor to the younger core. While still a mock trade, the proposal highlights a realistic path forward for two teams with very different priorities—Dallas looking to stay competitive in the West without Kyrie, and Detroit seeking lineup balance and contractual clarity.

Anthony Davis returns and scores 12 as Mavericks hand Nets fourth straight loss
Naji Marshall scored 22 points off the bench to lead the visiting Dallas Mavericks to a 120-101 rout of the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night. P.J. Washington and Spencer Dinwiddie finished with 16 each, Brandon Williams scored 15 and Kai Jones added 13. Anthony Davis, in his first game back after missing six weeks with a groin injury, had 12 points in 27 minutes. Brooklyn dropped to 23-49 with its fourth straight loss. Nic Claxton led the Nets with 19 points. Mavericks : For a team that is in a neck-and-neck race with Phoenix for the final Western Conference play-in spot, Dallas believes that the reinsertion of Davis -- among others -- can provide a boost. "We understand what's at stake here," coach Jason Kidd said before the game. "We got to figure out how to win." Nets : With three weeks remaining, coach Jordi Fernandez wants his team to use the final 11 games of the season to work on in-game execution. "We have to control (in order) to (have) one more possession," Fernandez said before the game. "I think winning teams take care of those possessions." Dinwiddie knocked down a left corner 3, and then assisted on buckets by Marshall and Jones in a 26-second span midway through the third quarter that allowed the Mavericks to extend their lead to 75-56. Brooklyn entered the game ninth in the NBA in 3-pointers attempted per game (39.1) and 29th in 3-pointers made per game (34.5). Against the Mavericks, the Nets made 11 of their 33 attempts from beyond the arc. The Mavericks play the Knicks on Tuesday night. Brooklyn hosts Toronto on Wednesday.
