Powell has reached double figures in all 13 of his appearances and has been a steady contributor for an offense that has been without Tyler Herro (ankle).

Heat's Norman Powell: Scores 25 points in win
Rotowire
Powell had 25 points (10-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 110-96 win over the Warriors.
Powell got off to a slow start in this one, as he struggled with foul trouble through the first half of action. However, he came alive during the fourth quarter and dropped 17 points during the final frame. Powell has been putting up All-Star-caliber numbers this season with averages of 25.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 3.3 triples and 1.2 steals per game, although his scoring will likely dip once Tyler Herro (ankle) gets back to the court and fully up to speed.

Heat's Norman Powell: Goes for 19 points
Rotowire
Powell contributed 19 points (9-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, three assists and one steal across 32 minutes during Monday's 115-113 win over the Knicks.
Powell was unable to repeat the 38-point outburst he delivered in the loss to the Knicks on Friday, but he remains a consistent scoring weapon for a Heat team that's missing two of its best offensive threats in Tyler Herro (ankle) and Bam Adebayo (toe). Even though this 19-point output snapped Powell's run of games with at least 20 points at eight, fantasy managers should continue to trust him as a player who's going to produce at a steady rate every time he steps on the hardwood.

Heat's Norman Powell: Drains eight triples vs. New York
Rotowire
Powell logged 38 points (12-22 FG, 8-15 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds and one steal over 33 minutes during the Heat's 140-132 loss to the Knicks on Friday.
It was a high-scoring affair at Madison Square Garden on Friday, and Powell played a critical role in helping the Heat keep up the pace. He scored 23 points through the first three quarters before turning it on in the fourth for 15 points, and his eight three-pointers tied a career-high that he set March 17, 2021, as a member of the Raptors. Powell has been Miami's top scoring option in the absences of Tyler Herro (heel) and, more recently, Bam Adebayo (toe). Powell's high usage should continue in Monday's rematch against New York. Through seven games in November, Powell has averaged 27.0 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 3.7 threes over 31.5 minutes per game.

Powell has now scored 20 or more points in seven consecutive games, and he's topped the 25-point mark four times in that stretch.

Heat's Norman Powell: Goes for 22 points in win
Rotowire
Powell finished Saturday's 136-131 win over the Trail Blazers with 22 points (7-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, three assists and two steals across 30 minutes.
Powell had the best season of his career in 2024-25 with the Clippers, but he's been even better so far in 2025-26. Despite missing three games between Oct. 28 and Nov. 2 due to an ankle injury, the veteran forward has been very consistent and productive when available. He's reached the 20-point mark in all but one of his seven appearances in 2025-26, including each of his last five outings. It's still early in the season, but Powell is already surpassing the 21.8 points per game he averaged in 2024-25 with a scoring average of 23.2 points per contest this term.

Heat's Norman Powell: Scores 25 points; tweaks ankle
Rotowire
Powell provided 25 points (10-20 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 27 minutes during Friday's 126-108 victory over the Hornets.
Powell went back to the locker room early during the first half after tweaking his right ankle, and while he was able to play through it, it wouldn't be shocking to see him skip Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers. If he needs to take a maintenance day, that would open up minutes for Jaime Jaquez and Nikola Jovic.

Heat's Norman Powell: Scores 21 in win
Rotowire
Powell (groin) totaled 21 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Monday's 120-119 win over the Clippers.
Powell returned from a three-game absence due to a groin injury and immediately made an impact, surpassing 20 points while going perfect from the charity stripe. Brought in to provide reliable scoring for the Heat, the veteran has done just that through four games, averaging 23.3 points on 50 percent shooting from the field and 52.4 percent shooting from beyond the arc. While maintaining that level of efficiency -- particularly from downtown -- may prove difficult, Powell's steady offensive production remains vital for Miami as they look to stay afloat without Tyler Herro (foot/ankle).
