American News: Powell s contract renewal is suspense, and this year s free market segment price is generally cold

According to reporter Fred Katz, an article analyzing the Heat's offseason operations, he said that the renewal of new player Powell may be a bit tricky.

"The Heat only used two diminishing veterans Kyle Anderson and Kevin Love, and did not pay any draft picks to get Powell. The latter's future is still suspense. Powell's fellow will expire after the end of this season. Considering his efficient performance of 21.8 points per game in 2024-25, renewal will inevitably require a salary increase, which may be a bit tricky in today's economic environment. The Heat have seen the market trend: the shooting guard's net worth is free market The game is generally cold.

Look at the Pistons' situation, Malik Beasley only won a one-year and 6 million contract last summer; Hardaway Jr. made an efficient attack on the team last season, but joined the Nuggets with a basic salary. The Heat took the lead by decisively - although they lost Duncan Robinson this summer, they got Simeone Fontekio by signing first and then trading, and with Powell's joining, the outside firepower was strengthened.
