Sounds incredibly familiar. If he has freak hands like Wade too, I'm gonna be worried.

Did you all see how wade's hand swallowed Dragic's head in the post game interview?


Nope, he can't palm the ball it seems. But he's still a gem for a 2nd round pick.

How old is he?? If he's young, he can develop into a monster. But if he's old as our JR, then I understand why he's able to provide very important rotation minutes for you guys.

I read that he's a second year nba rookie?


He's 22 and spent 4 years in college, so that explains why he's contributing so much already. He's a real rookie though. He was drafted in 2015 draft with the 46th pick.

Ah ok. Damn. You guys really got a JR! Ujiri does it again...

So 6 after JRich.

Let's see who has the better career in 15 years time.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

I'm from the future.

JR had a solid career and contributed meaningfully to many Heat playoff victories. Unfortunately, Powell flamed out after three seasons and now works at a Cinnabon part-time to support his life-long ambition of starring as Fred Sanford in the upcoming 2035 remake of Sanford & Sons. Sorry, bro.

dont know the exact age, but I think he did 4 years in UCLA too..so almost the same age as JRich... he and Jrich are gems from 2nd round...I actually compare Powell more with McCollum...
