Mavericks’ big man Dwight Powell isn’t one to belabor any point about his physical condition.
“If I’m on the court, I’m fine,” is his standard line.
But since his return from a hamstring strain that cost him virtually all of training camp, the preseason and the first three games of the regular season, Powell has looked very much like he’s working himself into shape.
Wednesday’s runaway win over Golden State was his 11th game, which means he’s had about three weeks to knock off rust and work his way through the equivalent of what would have been his training camp.
