I would really like to vote no on this one. I am sure Powell is a great guy. He does some good things in the regular season. But I think he is basically useless in playoffs and that was before his injury. Powell is way overpaid. One dimensional back up centre who can't shoot the ball should be paid closer to vet min than 10+ mil Powell is making. Philly is paying vet min for a back-up centre of injury prone Embiid after learning the lesson hard way with Horford. You can't afford to pay for insurance.
However, Powell is a negative contract and it is difficult to see a trade without sending assets Mavs don't really have, so I guess Powell will remain on the roster. Gordon is literally the only bad contract I see as the possibility where Mavs could move Powell with a minor asset attached to save Houston some money.
