As a team, the Heat shot 4-of-30 from beyond the arc in Saturday’s 123-99 loss. Powell was part of the problem, as he shot 1-of-7 from deep while Tyler Herro was 1-of-8. Fantasy managers can take solace in the fact that Powell has been highly productive on most nights, which should be an indicator of his ability to bounce back. He’ll look to do so in Miami’s final game of Week 12 on Sunday against the Thunder.

Powell knocked down a pair of three-pointers to open the contest but never really got going afterwards as Miami went ice-cold from the floor in the second half and fell behind by nearly 30 points by the middle of the fourth quarter. The 32-year-old has been a revelation for fantasy managers in his Heat debut, averaging 24.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks through 32 games. He’s scored at least 21 points in seven consecutive games since December 26.

Powell got off to a sizzling-hot start on the second night of a back-to-back, going 6-of-7 from the field, including 5-of-6 from three-point range, to enter halftime with 20 points. He kept the momentum going down the home stretch, finishing 9-of-12 from beyond the arc, notching his second 30-point performance in his last three games. The unheralded 32-year-old scoring machine has benefitted greatly from Miami’s new run-and-gun style offense in his Heat debut, delivering third-round fantasy value, averaging 24.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks through 31 games. The Heat are in line for a four-game week coming up that includes a rematch against Minnesota before road tilts against the Bulls, Pacers and Thunder.

There weren’t a ton of bright spots for Miami in this one as they fell behind by nearly 20 points before rallying late to make things a bit closer. The 32-year-old guard has scored at least 20 points in 11 of his last 14 games since the start of December. The Heat, who have won four of their last five games, are back in action against the Pelicans on Sunday before opening a busy four-game week that features matchups against the Timberwolves, Bulls, Pacers and Thunder.

Powell put on a show in the Motor City, finishing two points and one three-pointer shy of his season-highs in those categories. He continues to exceed his Yahoo! ADP (88) by a significant margin, providing third-round per-game value in eight-cat formats. And as long as the Heat are without Tyler Herro (toe), Powell’s fantasy ceiling will remain high.

Powell was one of eight Heat players in double figures in Monday’s victory, the tenor of which changed when the Nuggets lost Nikola Jokić to a second-quarter knee injury. The Heat guard continues to exceed the expectations of fantasy managers, providing fourth-round per-game value in eight-cat formats. The Heat are off until Thursday when they visit the Pistons in their lone road game of the week.

Powell and the Heat won in Atlanta by a comfortable margin, with a 31-19 second quarter allowing the visitors to grab control. The 25 points were the most he’s scored in a game in three weeks, when the Heat guard dropped 28 on the Magic on December 5. With Bam Adebayo (back) joining Tyler Herro (toe) on the sidelines, Powell becomes Miami’s top scoring option, which should raise his fantasy ceiling. The return home for their final game of Week 10 on Saturday against the Pacers, who also played on Friday.

It should’ve been a monster scoring night for Powell but he went just 1-for-6 from three-point range and knocked down only six of his team-high 17 shot attempts. The 32-year-old scoring threat has been in a little bit of a rut recently but he’s still put together an impressive Miami debut, averaging 23.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.2 blocks through 25 games.

Powell has scored 20 points or more in four of his last five games, and he also finished Sunday’s defeat with solid steal and three-point numbers. Over the past two weeks, Powell has shot 40.7 percent from the field, as he plays through a right (shooting) thumb injury. As a result, he has “only” been a top-100 player during that stretch. He’ll look to build on Sunday’s performance when the Heat face the Raptors on Tuesday.

Powell’s half court buzzer-beating floater gave the Heat a five-point lead at halftime. With Tyler Herro (toe) out, Powell was clearly the top offensive option for the Heat. Despite dealing with left calf discomfort, Powell’s 24 points led the Heat in the victory. The Heat will be back in action Friday against the Celtics.

Powell is dealing with left calf discomfort, but he’ll play through it on Thursday. Assuming he doesn’t re-aggravate the injury, fantasy managers should expect him to handle his typical workload.

This is a new injury for Powell, which certainly brings his status for Thursday’s game against the Nets into question. Tyler Herro (toe) also missed practice, so there could be a ton of extra minutes for Jaime Jaquez Jr. and at least one open spot in the starting lineup for him to fill.

While he has scored at least 20 points in five of his last six appearances, Powell’s field-goal percentage took a hit on Monday. He made five of his 15 attempts against the Raptors and has gone 19-of-48 from the field over his last three games. The decrease in field-goal percentage is why Powell has been ranked outside the top-150 in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks. However, his season-long fantasy value remains high, so fantasy managers should not be too concerned.

Powell was the leading scorer for Miami, but the Heat offense, which has been one of the best in the league this year, faltered once again, leading to a fourth straight loss. Still, even if this was a slightly subpar shooting performance for Powell, he has been a consistent source of offense for them this season. Even with Tyler Herro (toe) back in the lineup, Powell was still able to get his typical shot attempts. Powell should remain a fantastic option for fantasy managers for the remainder of the season.

The Heat starters struggled on Saturday, with Powell and Andrew Wiggins (13/4/4 with one three-pointer) being the only ones in double figures. And while the former offered solid production in points and percentages, his production outside of those categories was meager. Powell is still providing top-50 fantasy value, so managers have little to worry about going into Week 8. The Heat visit Orlando on Tuesday in an NBA Cup quarterfinal matchup, with the winner heading to Las Vegas.

Powell missed Wednesday’s game against the Mavericks, but returned Friday against the Magic and had 28 points. With Tyler Herro (toe) doubtful, Powell will have the reigns of the Heat offense once again Saturday against the Kings.

Powell dropped 28 points with Tyler Herro (toe) out against the Magic on Friday. The 32-year-old shooting guard took on another big time scoring role, though both players’ fantasy values should be fine when both are healthy.

Powell is set to return on Friday against the Magic after missing Wednesday’s loss against the Mavericks. With Tyler Herro (toe) listed as doubtful, Powell is in line to run the offense for the Heat. Pelle Larsson will likely return to the bench with Powell back.

Powell did not play in Wednesday’s loss to the Mavericks, resulting in Pelle Larsson making the start. However, he struggled and only played 23 minutes. If Powell remains out, Larsson would only be worth a look in deep leagues if Tyler Herro (toe) is also sidelined. He’s considered questionable for Friday.

This is a new injury for Powell, so fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status ahead of Wednesday’s tip-off with Dallas. If Powell is sidelined, more minutes will be available for Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Nikola Jovic.

Playing against his former team, Powell was able to have a big night to help the Heat get back on track after losing to the Pistons on Saturday. Powell has shined in his first year with Miami, and the return of Tyler Herro hasn’t slowed him down. He’ll look to stay hot in Dallas on Wednesday in what will be the second game of a four-game week.

Like Andrew Wiggins, Powell bounced back on Saturday after a subpar performance in Wednesday’s win over the Bucks. However, to be fair to Norman, that was his first game back from a strained groin that kept him out of the previous contest. He looked healthy against the Pistons, and he’s scored at least 25 points in nine games this season. So far, the inclusion of Tyler Herro has not been an issue for Powell, which is good news for fantasy managers.

Powell’s return from a one-game absence was an unspectacular one. He logged 29 minutes and recorded his lowest scoring total of the season, failed to make a three-pointer, and shot only 36.4 percent from the field. Wednesday also marked Powell’s first game alongside Tyler Herro, who recently made his season debut while Powell was out with a groin injury. How the two high-scoring guards play alongside one another will be fascinating from a fantasy basketball perspective. Nonetheless, the Heat captured their sixth straight win.

With Powell and Wiggins returning from injury, the Heat have made two changes to their starting lineup. Pelle Larsson and Kel’el Ware head to the bench. While both will remain in the rotation, Ware is the one who should continue to be rostered in 12-team leagues. Wiggins is back after a three-game absence, so it’s possible that he doesn’t play full starters’ minutes on Wednesday.

After sitting out Monday’s win over the Mavericks, Powell is back for the Heat. However, it’s unknown if he’ll start or come off the bench. If Powell resumes his usual duties as a starter, Pelle Larsson is the player most likely headed to the bench. However, Powell can provide excellent value as a reserve, serving as the primary scoring option for the second unit.

Powell missed Monday’s game with a groin injury, but his probable listing for Wednesday’s game against the Bucks indicates it shouldn’t be a lengthy absence for him. The 32-year-old shooting guard is likely to make his return against the Bucks and play alongside Tyler Herro for the first time this year.

Powell dropped 32 points in the win over the 76ers on Sunday, but he’ll sit out the second game of a back-to-back against the Mavericks on Monday. The 32-year-old shooting guard had been on the injury report with left hip irritation in previous games, but is now dealing with a groin injury. His usage should be absorbed by Tyler Herro, who is set to make his season debut Monday.

Powell came out hot on Sunday, scoring ten points in the first quarter. The Heat guard would finish with his fourth 30-point game of the season, once again leading the way offensively. Powell has been a fantasy standout thus far, and his play has been one reason the Heat have been as explosive offensively as they’ve been in years. Tyler Herro, who has been out after undergoing offseason ankle surgery, could make his season debut on Monday. Powell’s fantasy value should be fine, but the dynamic between those two is worth tracking.
