Josh Powell

After winning back-to-back championships with the Lakers, Powell signed a one-year deal with the Hawks this offseason. He was an energetic bench player for the Lakers and is expected to play a similar role for Atlanta. Powell could earn slightly more playing time on a team like this, but nothing in Powell’s previous five NBA seasons leads us to believe his production will be significant enough for him to make a splash in fantasy.

This season will mark the first time in Powell's career in which he begins the season in the same location where he ended the last one, which won't translate into much value for the team.

The former Clipper was signed to fill the vacancy left by Turiaf. Powell will bring energy and rebounding off the pine, but extremely limited fantasy value. He shouldn't be touched in drafts, unless Bynum or Gasol goes down in the preseason.

Powell was considered a throw-in in the Anthony Johnson/Darrell Armstrong deal, but he's already drawn positive reviews in the Pacers' training camp. Teammate Jermaine O'Neal describes him as a "better Udonis Haslem." He'll probably average about 10-15 minutes per game.
