It makes the Olympics and these types of games really hard to evaluate because they look great out there. It just doesn’t translate often. Sort of weird.
I mean he was in the NBA for two season, one with the Celtics and the other with the 76ers. Not the easiest teams to earn a role at the 5 with them having a really good team with good centers.
But the guy has legit size with 7 feet, rebounds everything, goes after every shot to block it, is athletic to finishes alley-oops and showed a sweet mid range jumper. And on top of that has a mean streak - and a mean mug.
So with the exception of finishing alley-oops Dwight Powell is the exact opposite in all of these attributes, isn’t he?
