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.
This doesn’t really address my point. It’s about roster balance.
WITH THE ROSTER IN ITS CURRENT STATE, both McGee and Powell are in their top 9, so both will get played. If not, there is no way they can exist without DEPENDING on one of Green, Ntilikina, Hardy or whomever mystery guest #15 is. Let’s say Dorsey for holding the place.
And, they CERTAINLY can’t get away with not player EITHER McGee or Powell, no matter how much they might want to. At least one of them, and probably both, are going to see the floor, imho.
…without some sort of additional roster shakeup. I’m going to keep praying.
