Powell closed Sunday's 112-98 loss to the Clippers with nine points (4-4 FG, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 21 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Powell continues to start for the Mavericks, although even without Christian Wood (thumb), he has been unable to make any fantasy noise. There is very little excitement when it comes to Powell's fantasy game, often providing much better real life value. Barring a miracle, there is no reason for managers in standard leagues to pay him any attention.

Powell is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers.

EDGE Analysis

Powell will get the nod over Christian Wood, who will miss Saturday's game due to a sprained right ankle. Powell is averaging 5.5 points and 3.3 rebounds across 17.5 minutes per game in 26 starts this season.

Powell (hip) is available off the bench for Thursday's matchup against the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Powell was forced out of Tuesday's loss to the Clippers early due to a right hip contusion. With Dorian Finney-Smith (adductor) still sidelined, Reggie Bullock and JaVale McGee could see extended minutes if Powell deals with any setbacks.

Powell (hip) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Powell was knocked out of Tuesday's loss to the Clippers due to a hip injury and is in jeopardy of missing at least one additional contest. The severity of the issue remains unclear, but it's at least somewhat positive news that the veteran big man wasn't initially ruled out. Dorian Finney-Smith (adductor) remains sidelined, so if Powell is held out as well, Davis Bertans, Reggie Bullock and JaVale McGee would all be candidates for increased roles Thursday.

Powell (hip) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Clippers, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Powell has been downgraded from questionable for the remainder of Tuesday's game with a hip contusion. Davis Bertans has started the second half in his place. Powell's status for Thursday's matchup with the Lakers is uncertain.

Powell is questionable for the remainder of Tuesday's game versus the clippers due to a right hip contusion.

EDGE Analysis

Powell exited Tuesday's game after recording four points, two rebounds and one steal in eight minutes. JaVale McGee and Christian Wood are in line to see extended minutes in his absence. If Powell can't return against the Clippers, his next chance to suit up is Thursday's matchup with the Lakers.

Powell closed with two points (1-1 FG), four rebounds, one block and one steal across 15 minutes during Saturday's 127-117 victory over the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Powell was back in the starting lineup Saturday, although you certainly wouldn't know it to look at the final boxscore. He did manage two combined steals and blocks, although beyond that was a huge bucket of nothing. Whether he is starting or coming off the bench, Powell's real-life value far outweighs his fantasy value. Even managers in deeper formats would be better off streaming his spot, as opposed to holding on and waiting for him to blow up.

Powell is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

Powell returns to the starting lineup after a four-game stretch as a bench alternative. The big man has started 23 times in the current campaign and is averaging 5.7 points with 3.2 rebounds across 17.7 minutes per tilt.

Powell produced 19 points (8-8 FG, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 21 minutes during Thursday's 129-114 victory over the Rockets.

EDGE Analysis

Powell put together one of his best performances of the season, shooting a perfect 8-of-8 from the floor. While he had been starting prior to Thursday, a shift to the bench apparently reinvigorated the veteran center. Despite this effort, it is unlikely Powell can replicate this moving forward. He is barely a top-270 player on the season, making him a deeper league consideration, at best.

Powell will come off the bench Thursday against Houston, Lachard Binkley of TheDreamShake.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Powell started the team's last game alongside Christian Wood. However, he will be bumped back to the bench in favor of Frank Ntilikina on Thursday. WIth Reggie Bullock (illness) out, Powell should still be in line for a significant workload.
