90 million in 4 years! The Mavericks last sign! The reinforcement ends and strives for the championship

On August 25, NBA famous reporter Marc Stein reported that starting from Friday (29th) local time, PJ-Washington is eligible to renew the contract with the Mavericks in advance, and can sign up to a four-year, $90 million contract. Marc Stein said that the Mavericks will renew their contract with PJ Washington, after all, many teams are paying attention to this player who is both offensive and defensive.

This summer, the Mavericks selected Cooper Flag with the No. 1 pick, and PJ Washington will play a substitute for Flag next season. Is it worth it to renew a substitute for $90 million in four years? Washington's current contract is $46.5 million for three years and expires in the summer of 2026, with one year remaining $14.15 million. If the contract is not renewed, he will become a free agent next summer. Mavs Film Room, a Mavericks media, wrote: "The signing will be great for the Mavericks in four years and $90 million." PJ-Washington was born on August 23, 1998, just celebrated his 27th birthday. Washington is a 3D forward line favored by many teams. Most teams can start, so the Mavericks are of course reluctant to let go. In the 2024-25 season, Washington played 57 regular season games with the Mavericks, including 56 starters. He averaged 32.2 minutes per game, scored 14.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.1 blocks and 2.1 turnovers, with three shooting percentages: 45.3%, 38.1%, 72.2%. It's $90 million in four years, with an average annual salary of 22.5 million, which is really not expensive.

On February 9, 2024, the Mavericks gave Gway + Seth Curry + the first two picks in 2027, and exchanged PJ - Washington + 2 second round picks from the Hornets. Almost at the same time, the Mavericks used Holmes + 1 first-round pick to exchange for Gafford from the Wizards. These two transactions are among the few successful cases of the Mavericks in recent years.

During this offseason, the Mavericks renewed their contract with Gafford for 3 years and $54.38 million, and now they are renewing their contract with Washington for 4 years and $90 million, successfully leaving behind two puzzles for championships. Several operations of the Mavericks this summer: renewed Irving for $119 million in three years, signed Russell for $11.6 million in two years, selected Flag from the No. 1 pick, and renewed Exam for the basic salary.

When the contract renewal of Washington on Friday, the Mavericks' offseason operation will be over. If the full score is 10, how many points will you give the Mavericks a break-even?
