In the first two games of the season, Kentucky forward PJ Washington scored just 11 points on nine total shot attempts from the floor with eight rebounds, five turnovers (all in the Southern Illinois win) and no steals or blocks.
In the following four games after the 1-1 start, Washington has been en fuego for the ‘Cats, averaging 17.3 points, 10.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals per game in the four-game span.
(And because you totally care about his free-throw percentage after what happened in March against Kansas State, in the six games so far this season, Washington has made 21-of-33 freebies, which is good enough for 63.6 percent. That’s not bad for the big fella coming off the finger issues late last season.)
What’s made the difference for Washington since the early couple games?
Well, other than his confidence and swagger being back like it was during the Bahamas trip, he’s showing the full arsenal of his game.

PJ has his moments but, to me, he is too inconsistent. I'd like to see him really play hard for the whole game and limit his fouls. His 3-of shooting has improved quite a bit.

PJ has the talent but seems to lack the desire to be a consistent front line player. He takes too many plays and games off. His minutes are starting to wane with his lackluster efforts on the court.
