Powell: Wade is my favorite star as a child and I have been learning his style of play and mentality.

Norman Powell talked about what he learned from his favorite star Wade in an exclusive interview with Essentially Sports.

When asked, compared to other great players, what is one thing about Wade that particularly resonates with him? Powell said: "His playing style. I have watched him play since I was a child and learned his style of play, mentality and aggression from him. His breakthrough ability is too strong. Our size and athletic ability were very close when I was growing up, so I have always wanted to imitate his explosive style of play."

"Later on, I also worked hard to improve my work attitude and training intensity. I often say that Kobe's mentality combined with Wade's skills and playing style merged into my own style. Because our playing styles were quite similar when we were young, I have always liked him, and I hope to integrate that spirit into my own game."
