Dwight Powell

PF, Dallas Mavericks

A ruptured Achilles kept Dwight Powell from improving on his 2018-19 campaign.

After a rough start to the season Powell was beginning to have more of an impact in the few weeks leading up to his unfortunate Achilles injury. The forward finished the year averaging 9.4 points and 5.4 rebounds per game on 64% shooting from the field while adding 0.9 steals a night. After finishing a promising 2018-19 season ranked in the top-125 both Dallas and fantasy owners were expecting growth from Powell in 2019-20. Hopefully he can make a full recovery but we should not expect to see him on the court until 2021 at the earliest.
