Annual salary of 20.48 million U.S. dollars, 4 career highs! The strongest signing in the NBA is born, he can be an All-Star

When trees are moved to death, people are moved to life. Many stars have shined after changing careers, and their NBA careers have become wider and wider. For example, Dun Luo, who switched to the Pistons, played 12 games and averaged 12.3 points + 2.6 rebounds + 1.7 assists + 3 three-pointers per game. His three-point shooting percentage was as high as 42.9%, and he was reborn. There is also Porter Jr. who has switched to the shooting net. After 10 games, he averaged 23.2 points + 7.4 rebounds + 2.6 assists + 3.1 three-pointers per game. Points, rebounds, and assists all hit career highs. It only took Porter Jr. 7 games to complete 30+ points three times. For comparison, last season, Porter Jr. completed 30+ points three times in a total of 77 games. Both Dun Luo and Porter Jr. have opened a new page in their careers. The Pistons and Nets have successfully signed players, but the strongest signing in the NBA is someone else!

What I want to talk about is the Heat's new aid Powell. Last season, Powell had the strongest season of his career with the Clippers. After 60 games, Powell averaged 21.8 points + 3.2 rebounds + 2.1 assists + 1.2 steals per game. His three-point shooting rate was as high as 41.8%, and he was almost selected for the All-Star lineup. However, the Clippers did not intend to give Powell a big contract. They had to send Powell to the Heat in order to get Collins in a large multi-party trade during the offseason. The Clippers squeezed out Powell's trade value, but they never thought they underestimated Powell's true strength.

In the new season, Powell is in a contract year with an annual salary of US$20.48 million! Coincidentally, the Heat's top scorer Herro was exempted from the game due to injury. Powell was ordered to become the Heat's sharp knife at the critical moment, almost going berserk in every game - after 9 games, Powell scored 20+ in 8 games. Among them, in the opening game against the Magic, Powell scored 28 points + 9 rebounds + 4 assists; against the Knicks, Powell scored 29 points + 7 rebounds + 3 assists; against the Clippers, Powell scored 21 points + 2 rebounds + 2 assists + free throws; in the two games with the Cavaliers, Powell scored 33 points + 2 rebounds + 2 assists and 27 points + 2 rebounds + 5 assists respectively.

So far this season, Powell has played in 9 games, averaging 31.1 minutes per game, averaging 24.8 points + 4 rebounds + 2.6 assists + 1.2 steals + 3 three-pointers per game. His three shooting percentages are 47.2%, 46.6% and 93.9% respectively. Powell is not only the Heat's scoring leader, but also has set career highs in four categories: points, rebounds, three-point field goal percentage and free throw percentage. During the Clippers era, many people believed that Powell's success was inseparable from Harden's fueling; but what was the result? During the Heat, Powell played the role of the team's number one arrowhead and also played well, working hard and burning himself out. It's not for nothing. After all, he was one of the contributors to the Raptors' championship.

When talking about joining the Heat, Powell made it clear. He said bluntly: I have found a feeling of home, and my playing style and temperament fit perfectly with the team culture. Yes, in the new offensive system created by Spoelstra, a veteran with both strength and experience like Powell is at home. He can fully demonstrate his offensive skill package. Heat player Wiggins pointedly pointed out: Powell is the most successful and strongest signing. He is extremely talented and a top leader. Yes, if this continues, I don't know that Riley may not give the 32-year-old Powell a decent big contract, but one thing is for sure, as the Heat's leading scorer, the Heat's record is not bad, and Powell can definitely make the All-Stars! Fans and friends, what do you think of this? Come and leave me a comment to discuss.
