Starting Saturday Washington is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Baylor, Carlos Silva Jr. of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reports.

Impact Washington will enter the starting lineup for the second time this year and the first time since Jan. 7 with Daniel Batcho out of the starting five after suffering an apparent knee injury Monday. The 6-4 freshman is averaging 3.3 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 15.5 minutes per game this season.

Eight points in massive comeback Washington accumulated eight points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals across 26 minutes during Monday's 80-77 OT victory over Iowa State.

Impact Washington saw very minimal usage off the bench during the Red Raiders' previous five games. However, he was pressed into a bigger role Monday with starting point guard Pop Isaacs (ankle) sitting out. Washington was able to step up by converting all three of his attempts from within the three-point arc. The 6-foot-4 freshman has now logged six games with at least two steals this season, and he's now averaged 0.8 while playing only 15.0 minutes per game. Washington could see a bigger role again if Isaacs remains sidelined Saturday at Baylor.

Plays 36 minutes Washington totaled six points (2-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block in 36 minutes during Saturday's 68-63 OT loss to Oklahoma.

Impact Even without an overtime, Washington would have played more Saturday than during other games he participated in during 2022. 2023 is a promising year for the freshman. Richard Isaacs (concussion) will not have played every Raiders game, and they expect De'Vion Harmon to graduate.

Impact Washington will replace Richard Isaacs (concussion) in the starting lineup Saturday. The freshman guard will make the first start of his collegiate career.

17 free-throw attempts off bench Washington supplied 12 points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 12-17 FT), seven rebounds and five assists over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 78-71 win over Nicholls.

Impact Washington managed to put all three of Nicholls' starting guards in jeopardy of fouling out en route to his ridiculous 17 free-throw attempts. This also marked the most significant playing time of the freshman's career, as he averaged just 1.3 points and 2.0 assists in 10.3 minutes per game up until Wednesday. Washington's increased role came as junior guard D'Maurian Williams started in place of forward Jaylon Tyson, who did not play for unknown reasons. Washington could play a prominent role if Tyson remains out against Eastern Washington on Tuesday.
