He is not an elite defensive center by any stretch, but for most of his career he has averaged per 36 over 10 rebounds and roughly 2 blocks. His defensive advanced stats look good as well prior to last year when he barely played. I think Powell's defense is underrated around here, but in those areas where he really struggles (defensive rebounding and rim protection) Holmes is clearly better.
I did say "if". I hope you are correct.
