the high-efficiency, low-usage glue forward with real length
In the 2017-18 season at Saint Peter’s, Julian Powell gave the Peacocks efficient minutes as a 6'9" forward, shooting 53.5% from the field and 70% at the line while appearing in 30 games. His best value was as a physical, experienced role player who could finish, rebound, and make the dirty-work plays that steady a lineup. The catch? His offensive volume was modest, so he profiles more as a fit-and-function piece than a featured scorer. If your team wants length, effort, and reliable efficiency over flash, he’s your kind of forward.
