Norman Powell Scores 23 Points In Overtime Loss
Norman Powell scored 23 points on 8-for-14 shooting from the field and 4-for-8 from deep in Tuesday's 121-110 overtime loss to the Heat. The 26-year-old added a season-high eight rebounds, along with one assist and one steal in 34 minutes of action. Powell fueled the comeback and managed to force overtime with a clutch three-point field goal from the corner with under a minute remaining in regulation. The fifth year guard has stepped up in the absence of key role players this season, increasing his scoring average to 13.4 points per game through 20 games. Powell has earned consideration in deep leagues for his productivity in the scoring department.

Despite his recent health issues, Powell is still on track for a career year, as he is averaging 23.8 points in 33.0 minutes.

Norman Powell Out At Least 10 Days
Norman Powell (hamstring) will be re-evaluated in 10 days after suffering a right hamstring strain. The 31-year-old has had a fantastic season, averaging a career-high 23.8 points with 3.5 rebounds, and 1.3 steals while shooting 42.4% from behind the arc. Unfortunately, the latest update means he'll miss at least six games, although it's possible he could be out longer. With Powell sidelined, Bogdan Bogdanovic, who is coming off a 13-point, four-rebound showing in Tuesday's loss to the Suns, should remain in the starting lineup, with Amir Coffey potentially earning more minutes.

Norman Powell Out With Strained Hamstring
Norman Powell (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's meeting with the Phoenix Suns. After missing five games due to a knee injury, Powell was back in the lineup on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers, but he strained his right hamstring and played only nine minutes. Bogdan Bogdanovic and Amir Coffey will be expected to step up during Powell's absence. Powell's first opportunity to return is on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons, but since he is dealing with a muscle injury, it wouldn't be surprising if he sits out several games.
