Top Dwight Powell News

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Returns to reserve role

    Powell won't start Game 1 of the opening-round series against the Clippers on Sunday, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

    With Dallas resting its regulars, Powell drew a spot start during the regular-season finale and posted two points, eight rebounds, a steal and a block in 27 minutes during a loss to Oklahoma City. With Dereck Lively (knee) and Daniel Gafford healthy, Powell isn't guaranteed consistent playing time during the postseason.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Starting Sunday

    Powell will start in Sunday's regular-season finale versus Oklahoma City.

    Powell is joined by Olivier-Maxence Prosper and Josh Green in the frontcourt Sunday. Powell ascended to 21 minutes of action in Friday's loss to Detroit while the Mavericks rest other key contributors, and he will likely reprise a similar workload in Game 82.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Low playing time continues Thursday

    Powell recorded two points (1-1 FG, 0-1 FT) and three rebounds in eight minutes during Thursday's 109-95 victory over the Hawks.

    Powell hasn't seen meaningful playing time since the trade deadline Feb. 8, which coincides with the Mavericks acquiring Daniel Gafford from the Wizards. Powell is firmly behind Gafford and Maxi Kleber in the big man rotation, even with Dereck Lively expected to miss time due to a right knee injury. The last time Powell scored in double digits was Dec. 28 against the Timberwolves.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Grabs board in brief appearance

    Powell racked up zero points (0-1 FG), two rebounds and one assist in five minutes during Monday's 127-92 win over Chicago.

    Before the Daniel Gafford trade on Jan. 8, Powell averaged 4.2 points and 4.0 rebounds in 15.8 minutes, compared to just 1.0 points and 0.9 rebounds in 5.3 minutes since. With Dereck Lively (nose) returning to the rotation consistently, expect Powell to receive limited minutes behind Gafford, Lively and Maxi Kleber.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Logs six minutes in win

    Powell provided two points (1-1 FG), one rebound and one block in six minutes during Saturday's 146-111 victory over Oklahoma City.

    Powell saw just six minutes off the bench, a sign of what to expect moving forward. With the Mavericks' acquisitions of both P.J. Washington and Daniel Gafford, Powell appears as though he might struggle to crack the rotation on a nightly basis. Even in deeper formats, managers are more than welcome to move on.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Logs just one minute in return

    Powell (eye) played one minute and turned the ball over once while recording no other statistics in Monday's 131-129 win over the Magic.

    Powell was technically part of the rotation in his return from a three-game absence due to a scratched cornea, but he played only the final minute of the third quarter and was the third center to enter the contest behind starter Dereck Lively and reserve Richaun Holmes. With Dallas at full strength in the frontcourt, Powell could be deployed only situationally and may struggle to get off the bench in most games.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Cleared to play

    Powell (eye) is available for Monday's game against the Magic.

    Powell will return to action Monday after missing three straight games due to a scratched cornea in his left eye. Maxi Kleber (toe) and Dereck Lively are also available, so Powell's bench role will likely be limited.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Questionable for Monday

    Powell (eye) is questionable to play Monday versus Orlando.

    Powell is dealing with a scratched cornea in his left eye. He has missed three consecutive games due to the injury, although Dereck Lively and Maxi Kleber (toe) were developing a firm grasp on center minutes prior to Powell's affliction.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Another absence coming

    Powell (eye) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Kings.

    Powell's absence streak will extend to three games Saturday while he deals with a left eye abrasion. His next to play is Monday's matchup with Orlando.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Won't play against Atlanta

    Powell (eye) is out for Friday's game versus the Hawks.

    Powell will miss his second straight game Friday due to a corneal abrasion in his left eye. Powell's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Sacramento.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Late addition to injury report

    Powell is listed as out for Wednesday's game versus the Suns due to corneal abrasion in his left eye.

    Powell had already been dropped from the rotation in Monday's loss to the Celtics, so his absence Wednesday shouldn't have much of an effect on how the minutes are distributed in the Dallas frontcourt. His next chance to suit up will come Friday versus Atlanta.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Dropped from rotation Monday

    Powell (coach's decision) went unused off the bench in Monday's 119-110 loss to the Celtics.

    With Dereck Lively and Maxi Kleber recently returning from five- and 31-game absences, respectively, Powell's minutes had already started to trend down last week, and the veteran center ended up being ousted from the rotation entirely Monday. Powell could still resurface in the rotation in certain matchups, but while the Mavericks have all of their key frontcourt contributors available, his path to consistent minutes is much more complicated.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Back to bench with Lively's return

    Powell will come off the bench for Monday's game against the Pelicans due to Dereck Lively (ankle) returning from a five-game absence, Mark Followill of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

    The veteran center started Dallas' past five games, averaging 5.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.6 steals in 27.6 minutes. But with Lively back, Powell will return to a bench role -- one not conducive to fantasy value.

  • Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Dishes out eight assists Saturday

    Powell chipped in two points (0-1 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, eight assists and three steals across 34 minutes during Saturday's 118-108 loss to the Pelicans.

    Powell has made five consecutive starts with Dereck Lively (ankle) sidelined, and he's logging 27.6 minutes per game after averaging just 14.4 minutes through 32 contests prior. Powell's eight assists Saturday matched a career-best total and led the Mavericks. Quietly delivering 5.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.3 steals across his last nine games, Powell is a strong supporting piece to Dallas' top unit, but he provides more value from a real-life standpoint than he does for fantasy purposes.
