Who is Dillon Powers? Well, he’s certainly someone I’m bound to call “Austin Powers” at some point. But beyond that, he’s the latest acquisition by Orlando City, which traded Luis Gil to Colorado for him just prior to the closing of the summer transfer window.
Powers was the No. 13 overall pick in the 2013 MLS SuperDraft and was the MLS Rookie of the Year in 2013 for the Colorado Rapids after tallying five goals and six assists in his debut season in Major League Soccer. He followed that with five goals and nine assists in 2014, but since then has tailed off in his production, with just four goals and 11 assists in the last two and a half seasons.
