IF he can. That's a big ask honestly. Preseason results look quite promising, but he also couldn't miss from anywhere the entire time. Hard to tell if he was just riding a hot streak or if he's truly improved.
His form does look noticeably more controlled. Tighter is my best description for it. His elbow is tucked in more and he doesn't have as much vertical motion in his shot.
Like you said if Powell can become even a moderate 3pt shooter hovering around 34-35%, then he suddenly becomes one of the better starting 5's in the league at a bargain salary.
