Norman Powell Connects On A Season-High 23 Points
Norman Powell scored 23 points on an efficient 10 of 12 shooting from the floor in the win over the Pacers on Sunday. Powell also added two triples with two boards and a steal to his line. Powell got some extra usage and minutes with Kawhi Leonard (rest) sidelined and has been playing well recently with Kyle Lowry (back) recently out. As the Raptors get healthier, we can only see Powell's value taking a hit, but keep an eye on him in competitive leagues as things develop in Toronto.

Norman Powell Returns To Clippers Lineup Sunday
Norman Powell (hamstring) will make his return to the lineup on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. Powell has been unavailable for the past seven games and has actually logged just nine minutes of action since Feb. 13. Due to his long absence, Powell may be under a minutes restriction on Sunday. 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. With Powell's return, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Amir Coffey are expected to see reduced playing time.

Norman Powell Set To Miss Another Game Friday

Bogdanovic is averaging 15.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 2.0 threes per game during that stretch while Coffey is posting 8.3 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.3 threes per contest.

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.
