"Powell got hurt in the first half of Miami's loss at Philadelphia on Thursday night. An MRI confirmed a Grade 1 -- or low severity -- strain, and the Heat said Powell's status is being listed as week to week at this point."
"Powell is Miami's leading scorer this season, averaging 22.5 points per game. The Heat are 22-16 when he scores at least 19 points, and 9-13 when he doesn't score that many or doesn't play at all."
"Powell was an All-Star for the first time this season, and is in his first season with the Heat. He leads Miami in total field goals, total 3-point field goals and total free throws this season."
Miami Heat All-Star guard Norman Powell sustained a strained right groin during the first half of Thursday's loss to Philadelphia. An MRI confirmed a Grade 1 strain, classified as low severity. Powell's status is listed as week to week. As Miami's leading scorer averaging 22.5 points per game, his absence significantly impacts team performance. The Heat maintain a 22-16 record when Powell scores at least 19 points, compared to 9-13 when he scores less or doesn't play. A one-week absence could sideline him for approximately four games, including matchups against Houston, Brooklyn, and Charlotte. Powell leads Miami in field goals, three-pointers, and free throws this season.
