Norman Powell

Role players unafraid to deliver in the clutch are the difference between good teams and great ones. Norman Powell shows his squad that no moment is too big as the LA Clippers find themselves trailing by two in the guts of the game. After an in-transition Reggie Jackson finds Powell behind the arc, the eighth-year reserve forward shifts into attack mode, driving head on into the lane against the heart of the Cleveland Cavaliers defense and navigating all challengers. Powell draws the foul while converting the underhand layup, tying the game with 1:03 remaining. Powell’s 17 points and two steals were instrumental in the 119-117 victory on November 7, 2022.
