Dwight Powell

Dwight Powell suffered a right Achilles injury and did not return to Tuesday's game against the Clippers

Fantasy Impact

Powell, the Mavs starting center, has been a solid contributor in the frontcourt for Dallas averaging 9.4 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.5 assists over 26.5 minutes per game this season. Expect Maxi Kleber to fill most of the void, while Boban Marjanovic may also see more consistent playing time now.

Dwight Powell finished with 17 points (8-10 FG, 0-0 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and one assist across 35 minutes in a win against the Kings on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Powell has now finished with 29 or more FanDuel points in four of his last five games. The correlation here is that Powell has amassed this run with Porzingis sidelined with an injury. Powell can continue to be a DFS option, as long as Porzingis is out, in GPP and tournament formats but brings risk in cash games. Powell will look to continue his run of great performances on Friday when the Mavs host the Trail Blazers.

Dwight Powell dunked all over the defending Western Conference champions Tuesday night, totaling 21 points and six rebounds.

Even more impressive than Powell's scoring output was his efficiency, going 9-9 from the field, including a three-pointer. Despite playing a well-below-average team, Powell put on a show and is worth keeping an eye on as the season progresses.

Dwight Powell registered 19 points (8-11 FG, 0-3 3PT, 3-6 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal across 35 minutes in Saturday's 109-91 win over the 76ers.

Fantasy Impact

Powell recorded his first double-double of the season in Saturday's win over the 76ers. He has been solid in January, averaging 12.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 blocks across six games. Powell can be used as a streamer with Kristaps Porzingis sidelined with a knee injury. The Mavericks next scheduled game is Tuesday, away against the Warriors.

Dwight Powell totaled 16 points (6-7 FG, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds, three assists, two blocks and a steal over 27 minutes in the Mavericks’ 107-106 loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Powell provided another strong game Wednesday, stuffing the stat sheet with valuable contributions across multiple categories. He's elevated his play as of late, averaging 11.4 points, 6.9 boards, 1.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks over his last nine games. Powell has been a top-60 guy in nine-cat over the last two weeks, and even if this level of production dips moving forward, he's still done enough this season to be rostered in 12-team leagues.
