Norman Powell Scores Game-High 26 Points
3 years agoPortland Trail Blazers guard/forward Norman Powell managed to lead all scorers with 26 points in Wednesday's loss to the Warriors, but he got there with poor 8-for-23 shooting. The 28-year-old hit just one of his seven attempts from downtown and saved his scoring numbers with a 9-for-11 performance at the foul line. Powell tallied five assists as well with four turnovers and one steal. He's now scored 55 points in two games with Damian Lillard (abdomen) and C.J. McCollum (lung) out. The latter is ruled out indefinitely, which gives Powell more responsibility on offense, but he has to improve his efficiency. The former Raptor is shooting a miserable 33.8 percent this month.
