""I'm not sure yet," Powell said when asked about whether he thinks an extension or not is coming over the next few weeks. "I'm going to talk to my agent. I know my agent's going to talk to [Heat president Pat Riley] and the front office and figure those things out.""
"Even though Powell, who turns 33-years-old in May, had arguably the best season of his career, it was the tale of two campaigns. The first, happy-go-lucky side, was an essential shot in the arm. But Powell struggled mightily after the All-Star break due to numerous injuries."
"Powell averaged just 17.5 points post-All-Star break (compared to 23.0 before) on 58.2 percent true shooting. Moreover, his defense, once a strong point earlier in his career, continued to decline."
