An ankle injury sustained by P.J. Washington during pregame warmups thrust Naji Marshall into the starting lineup Saturday, and he capitalized on the opportunity against the Clippers. In 37 minutes of action, the wing filled the box score with 18 points (6-11 FG, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, three steals, and two three-pointers.
Fantasy Impact:
While Marshall has exceeded preseason expectations due to various injuries on the roster, his fantasy viability remains tethered to the health of the players above him on the depth chart. With Dallas kicking off a four-game slate in Week 7 against Denver on Monday, managers should monitor Washington’s status closely, as another absence would make Marshall a strong streaming candidate.
