P.J. Washington Cleared to Return Tuesday from Ankle Sprain

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington is available for Tuesday's game against the Hornets, making his return after missing three matchups with a left ankle sprain. He is expected to immediately rejoin the starting lineup, shifting Caleb Martin to a bench role. With the Mavericks dealing with multiple injuries, Washington's minutes are unlikely to be heavily restricted in his return.
