Not playing Thursday
Washington (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Spurs.
Analysis
Washington will miss a second consecutive game while in the league's concussion protocol, and his next opportunity to play is in Saturday's rematch against San Antonio. Caleb Martin and Klay Thompson should continue to operate in expanded roles for as long as Washington is sidelined.

Out Tuesday with concussion
Washington has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Celtics after being placed in concussion protocol.
Analysis
Washington exited Saturday's 111-107 loss to the Rockets due to what the Mavericks had initially labeled a head contusion, but the veteran big man is seemingly exhibiting symptoms of a concussion that resulted in him landing in the protocol. With Washington out for at least one game, Caleb Martin and Klay Thompson should see increased opportunity in his absence.

Suffers head contusion
Washington suffered a head contusion during Saturday's game against Houston and will not return.
Analysis
Washington was escorted back to the locker room by the medical staff with a towel over his head. He played 25 minutes before leaving the game for good, finishing with nine points (4-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal. He can be considered questionable for Tuesday's game against Boston until more information is known.

Sniffs double-double
Washington closed with 14 points (6-19 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 35 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 loss to the Hornets.
Analysis
Washington made his presence felt on both ends of the court, ending just one rebound shy of a double-double while posting at least two stocks for the fifth straight contest. Washington has been linked with a move away from the Mavericks before the Feb. 5 deadline, but until that materializes, he should continue to see a steady workload in the frontcourt. Washington is averaging 11.8 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.0 blocks per game in his last four contests.
