Now we have to trade for another big, if not two.

Gotta go get another big ASAP.
What’s Kenneth Faried up to? When’s his China season over?

He is right. A torn achilles is an easy diagnosis. Probably will have the information in a few hours.

Dang it
RE: INJURY: Dwight Powell w/ right achilles injury (likely torn) - Lukasmom - 01-21-2020
Has been confirmed. This really hurts the Mavs. One less trade chip AND we need a big guy.
RE: INJURY: Dwight Powell w/ right achilles injury (likely torn) - StepBackJay - 01-21-2020
Worst injury in the NBA. Hurts for Powell too as athleticism is a big part of his game. On the books for 3 more years after this season which looks over for him. JJB is still doing JJB things this year. Powell is a hard worker, hate to see it happen to a guy like him.

Powell was not going to get traded this year anyway. The hard part is that his contract looks terrible if he comes back as a guy with no vertical.

Disabled player exception?
RE: INJURY: Dwight Powell w/ right achilles injury (likely torn) - Jym - 01-21-2020
Really sucks but at least this happened before the trade deadline
Certainly in a recoverable position

Ya I was thinking that as well. Would have been worse for the team had it happened post deadline.
Rick will play a crap ton of small ball.

We basically already have one with that Barnes TPE. Right around 12 mil of that left to spend in trades if we want

Awful. I just wish him a full and quick recovery.
Just saddening...
RE: INJURY: Dwight Powell w/ torn right achilles (season ending) - dirkfansince1998 - 01-21-2020
I want to know if the Mavs had any information on a minor injury prior to the game. He hit the floor untouched two times before the injury.
3rd time he tore his achilles.
RE: INJURY: Dwight Powell w/ torn right achilles (season ending) - BigDirk41 - 01-21-2020
This is a awful injury. Praying for a quick and full recovery.

That's horrible. Feel bad for DP and his teammates. What a gut punch.
