Norman Powell Not Ready To Practice
7 months agoLos Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (groin) won't participate in Thursday's practice session. Powell did not suit up for Tuesday's preseason contest versus the Utah Jazz with a right groin strain, but head coach Tyronn Lue says he's getting better. The 30-year-old swingman had a dreadful go of it from the field (0-for-7) during 16 minutes of play in Sunday's opener but hit 6-of-7 free-throw attempts. As LA's likely sixth man, Powell is shaping up to be a late-round points and threes specialist with considerable contingency upside behind the oft-injured Kawhi Leonard and even Paul George, for that matter. Terance Mann, Bones Hyland, and Amir Coffey should take on expanded roles if Powell misses Tuesday's exhibition with the Denver Nuggets.
