MAVS NEWS: Luka Is Hurt, But is Trudging On | DLive's Mom Passes Away| Maxi OUT

But Powell is still on the roster, and they’re down a creator and the wing they’ve “added” is THJ. 

I’m pretty worried that they’re doubling down on Powell’s minutes by adding a similarly limited player into their top 8-9. I think there’s a good chance both of them play in every game, at least for the first couple of months. 

I’ve always been one of Powell’s biggest supporters here, and I never thought I’d type this sentiment, but at this point I’d actually feel better if Powell is removed from the roster, pretty much regardless of what comes back (as long as it isn’t another dinosaur center).

Someone being on the roster on a bad contract doesn't mean you shouldn't try to bolster the position group.  Brunson leaving is kind of an arbitrary bullet point.  

Powell might have some value as an expiring contract as part of a salary match in a bigger deal but you aren't just going to get rid of him for nothing.
