I may not have been strong on the Dwight Powell bandwagon from the start, but I always defended the slowly progressing big man for the Dallas Mavericks. With so many calling for his head in the early years of his career, I always felt like there was more to him if he could achieve his potential.
Now, Powell is looked at as the best player involved in the Rajon Rondo trade fiasco from the 2014-15 season. The youngster went from fighting for time on the court to a key part of the second unit for a good Dallas team.
