Powell, who entered Sunday shooting 28.5 percent from three, made his first four attempts on Sunday. That’s an area where he will need to become more consistent in time, and the performance against the Kings was a step in the right direction. Powell played 28 minutes on Sunday, and he should continue to take on that level of workload moving forward. If so, the rookie wing may have some deep-league value in the Nets’ three-game Week 23.

Powell will be back following a one-game absence. Jalen Wilson got the starting nod in his place but should return to playing a role off the bench with Powell back.

Powell will be available on Monday after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the 76ers. With Terance Mann (Achilles) unavailable, there will be additional minutes available on the perimeter. That isn’t enough to make Powell a worthwhile streaming target, but he’ll play rotation minutes.

Powell’s absence won’t have a significant effect on fantasy basketball, even with Egor Dëmin (foot) done for the rest of the season. Ziaire Williams has been removed from the injury report and should absorb most of the minutes that would go to Powell.

Powell and Michael Porter Jr. are back after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Bulls. They’ll step in for Egor Dëmin and Danny Wolf, with the latter headed to the bench. As for Dëmin, he will not play on Monday due to injury management.

Powell is back after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Bulls due to left knee injury management. With Egor Dëmin unavailable, Powell may move into the starting lineup. While that would raise his short-term ceiling, the 6-foot-6 wing is not a must-stream player in redraft leagues.

Powell will sit out Sunday’s game due to left knee injury management. With the Nets also being without Ziaire Williams, Nolan Traoré will have additional opportunities to contribute off the bench. There may also be more minutes available to Tyrese Martin, but he isn’t worth the streaming risk.

Making his third start and second in as many games, Powell dropped a season-high point total on Wednesday. Add in the rebounds and field-goal percentage, and this was a solid effort from the rookie. Powell played only 24 minutes, in part because of Cam Thomas being available. The playing time may limit Powell’s upside in the short term, but that shouldn’t be an issue after the All-Star break.

The Nets won’t have Egor Dëmin for Monday’s game, as he sits for injury management reasons. Fellow rookie Powell moves into the starting lineup, and he’ll spend a considerable amount of time initiating offense. Also in the lineup is Porter, who did not play in Sunday’s loss to the Grizzlies. His return means that Danny Wolf will come off the bench.

Due to left knee injury management, Powell will sit out the first of two games that Memphis will play in as many days. His absence does not affect fantasy basketball, but there may be additional minutes available for fellow rookie Nolan Traoré.

The Nets are down three starters for their first game of 2026, with Egor Dëmin, Terance Mann and Michael Porter Jr. out due to injury. Powell, Williams and Wolf move into the starting lineup, with the latter offering the highest streaming ceiling of the three.

Powell injured his right ankle during a December 18 loss to the Heat and has missed Brooklyn’s last two games. His return will coincide with Cam Thomas’s, so the rookie’s opportunities may be limited. Powell is unlikely to affect fantasy basketball.

Powell injured his right ankle during Thursday’s loss to the Heat and did not return. His absence led to more minutes for Jalen Wilson, who is not worth the streaming risk in redraft leagues.

Powell played four minutes before exiting with a sprained right ankle. His exit likely means more time for fellow reserve Jalen Wilson, but this will not have a significant impact on fantasy basketball.

Powell appears to like playing against the Knicks. Just over two weeks after scoring a season-high 15 points in a road loss to the Nets’ crosstown rival, the rookie wing matched that number on Monday. Powell didn’t record any defensive stats in the 113-100 defeat, but the offensive improvement was good to see. Since the first meeting with New York, he averaged 6.0 points in the six games that followed. This is going to be a season in which Powell and fellow rookie Egor Dëmin (9/6/2/1 with one three-pointer) play plenty; fantasy managers must hope that the early-season lumps turn them into valuable options during the “silly season.”

Powell may not have moved into the starting lineup in the aftermath of Cam Thomas’ hamstring injury, but the rookie has received more playing time to show what he can do. After logging 27 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Pistons, Powell played 23 on Sunday and produced his best offensive showing of the season. Powell, who entered Sunday 0-of-3 from deep, made all three of his attempts against the Knicks. He isn’t a player who should be rostered in fantasy leagues right now. Still, Powell’s name should be filed away in preparation for the “silly season,” especially with the Nets prioritizing getting a good draft pick next spring.

Powell is officially listed as questionable after missing the Nets’ last two games. When he has been available, his role has been minimal, though with Cam Thomas (hamstring) out, Powell could take on a larger role. However, that won’t be enough to consider streaming him on a day with 11 games.

Powell has spent two separate stints on the bench due to injury, having sprained his right ankle twice. The rookie did not impact fantasy basketball in either of his first two games, and that will likely remain the case if he’s cleared to play on Friday. However, Powell and the Nets’ other four first-round picks may be worth targeting later this season, as the franchise’s priority is to secure the best possible pick in next summer’s draft.

Making his first appearance since the season opener, Powell sprained the same ankle late in the first quarter of Sunday’s game. The rookie may be headed for another extended absence, given the prior injury. While Powell’s absence would not impact fantasy basketball in the short term, it would mean a few more minutes for fellow reserve Jalen Wilson.
