Gafford totaled 10 points (5-6 FG, 0-1 FT), nine rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 130-117 loss to Dallas.
Gafford has only one double-double through nine games to begin the season, but the fifth-year center has pulled down nine boards in three of the last four contests. He's had a solid start to the campaign, averaging 7.2 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game -- both of which would be career-high marks. Given the Wizards' lack of depth in the frontcourt, coach Wes Unseld's options at center are essentially either Gafford or running with a small-ball lineup, so the 25-year-old's court time this season should be very secure.
