Has Mavs' Dwight Powell Era Reached Its End? With upgrades necessary at the center position for the Mavericks this summer, Dwight Powell’s time in Dallas could be over.

APRIL 28, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Perfect from field Friday Powell produced 14 points (7-7 FG), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 20 minutes during Friday's 117-109 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Powell has scored in double digits in three of his last five games, and he was particularly efficient in this one, not missing a single shot from the field. He's scoring just 7.1 points per game this season but has shot a career-high 73.0 percent from the field.

MARCH 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Blows up for 22 points Powell finished Wednesday's 137-128 overtime win over the Spurs with a season-high 22 points (8-8 FG, 6-7 FT) to go with eight rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes.

Impact While Powell made good for anyone with the foresight to stream him or deploy him in DFS, it's difficult to envision him replicating the offensive production anytime soon. Not only was nearly perfect from both the field and the free-throw line, but Powell benefited from a matchup with one of the NBA's worst teams as well as an uptick in usage, with his 18.2 percent rate on the night handily outpacing his season-long rate (12 percent). The absences of all of Kyrie Irving (foot), Luka Doncic (thigh) and Tim Hardaway (calf) left Dallas with few reliable scoring options, and though all three could remain out for Friday's game against the Lakers, Powell is still likely to find himself behind all of Christian Wood, Josh Green, Reggie Bullock and Jaden Hardy in the offensive hierarchy.

Non-existent despite starting role Powell recorded two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists over 17 minutes during Monday's 104-88 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Powell continues to start for the Mavericks, although his output says otherwise. Despite starting every game over the past two months, Powell is well outside the top 200 in standard formats, highlighting just how little he has been able to impact games, at least from a production perspective. He can be considered in very deep formats, but as for standard leagues, you need not bother.

Near double-double in win Powell totaled 10 points (5-7 FG, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and three steals over 27 minutes during Thursday's 142-116 victory over the Spurs.

Impact Powell was one of eight Mavericks to score in double figures Thursday, as Dallas dismantled the Spurs en route to a blowout victory. The veteran big man also grabbed a team-high eight boards and recorded at least three steals in a game for the third time this season. Powell hasn't missed a contest since Dec. 19, and during that stretch, he's averaged 7.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.2 steals-plus-blocks in 22.4 minutes across 30 appearances (18 starts).

Grabs team-high 10 boards Powell accumulated eight points (4-4 FG), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 118-109 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Powell fell under double figures in scoring for the fourth game in a row while taking on his usual low-usage role on offense, but he returned value on the glass, claiming double-digit rebounds for the second time this season. Though he looks as though he'll continue to start at center over Christian Wood, Powell's volatile minutes and inconsistent contributions in most categories make him useful only in deeper leagues.

FEBRUARY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Double-doubles in win Powell accumulated 12 points (4-5 FG, 4-5 FT), 16 rebounds, two assists and one block over 28 minutes during Monday's 124-111 victory over the Jazz.

Impact Christian Wood (thumb) returned to action following an eight-game absence, but Powell's playing time wasn't affected while Wood was eased back in with an 18-minute workload off the bench. The two big men had been starting alongside one another prior to Wood's injury, but Dallas could prefer to have more of a floor-spacing option like Reggie Bullock as the power forward once both Luka Doncic (heel) and the newly acquired Kyrie Irving are available. Whether the Mavericks eventually settle on Wood or Powell as their starting center or deploy the two alongside one another, Powell likely won't see enough touches on the offensive end or contribute enough in other areas to warrant much intrigue outside of deeper leagues.

FEBRUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Decent numbers in loss Powell closed with 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and four steals over 30 minutes during Saturday's 119-113 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Powell's output has dipped this season due to Christian Wood's (thumb) presence, but the former has seen a bit of a boost during the latter's recent absence. Over the past eight games, Powell has averaged 9.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 0.8 blocked shots.

FEBRUARY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 15, swats three shots Powell ended with 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-6 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three blocks across 36 minutes during Thursday's 99-95 win over Phoenix.

Impact Powell couldn't repeat the season-best outing of 22 points and nine rebounds he delivered against the Wizards on Tuesday, but he was efficient from the field and produced on both ends of the court, finishing with a season-high block total. He's started in 10 of Dallas' last 11 games and is averaging 8.5 points with 4.4 rebounds per game in that span.

JANUARY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Season-best performance in loss Powell finished Tuesday's 127-126 loss to the Wizards with 22 points (8-12 FG, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 34 minutes.

Impact Powell came out of nowhere to record easily his best performance of the season Tuesday. Basically, everything was a season-high here, indicating that managers should show caution when analyzing this effort. He is locked in as the starter and so should continue to play meaningful minutes. With that said, his production up until Tuesday was mediocre, at best, meaning he is certainly not someone to prioritize.
