In the NBA regular season, the Mavericks defeated the Wizards 111-105 on the road. After the game, Kidd was interviewed.
Talking about Marshall's performance, Kidd said: "He performed very well. In some breakthrough rounds, I felt he was fouled, and we will look back at the video to confirm. But I can see his aggressiveness. For a while, he took over the game completely by passing the ball, controlling the rhythm, and finding his teammates. When the team needed it, he did it at a very high level, with the confidence to create opportunities for his teammates. "
In this campaign, Najib Marshall played 31 minutes as a substitute, making 9 of 14 shots, 3 of 4 three-pointers, 9 of 11 free throws, and scored 30 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals.
