What Heat wing Norman Powell had to say during his introductory media session https://t.co/I0j2nlUjGG
Norman Powell has some swagger to him. He’ll fit in just fine.
The Miami Heat formally introduced veteran guard Norman Powell following a trade completed this week. Powell, who said he grew up idolizing Dwyane Wade, described joining the franchise as a “childhood dream” and told reporters he already feels he fits the team’s hard-edged culture. Powell added that his scoring punch and on-ball “swagger” should complement Miami’s existing core. Specific trade terms were not disclosed during the session, but Powell indicated he had been thinking about a potential move to Miami for some time. In a separate development, guard Davion Mitchell confirmed he will return to the Heat next season. Mitchell said Powell’s arrival can boost the backcourt and factored into his decision to stay with the club.
