For sure. And, the national sense of his defense will improve quickly if he keeps being the glue for a good team like this. I think last night was huge for him, because there was so much smoke around the idea that Nico Harrison looked hard at Jerami Grant (who would undoubtedly have taken Washington's spot in the lineup) this past summer that I believe it, personally. Not sure how in the know PJ was with that, and he didn't outplay Grant, exactly, but he held his own and made Grant's life pretty difficult when defending him. If I'm Nico, I'm content with where things are at that position for the time being. Washington fits and is showing signs of reaching another level, as you say.
