Active at charity stripe Wednesday Powell totaled 16 points (3-8 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 8-10 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 22 minutes in Wednesday's 125-104 preseason win over Milwaukee.

Impact After not seeing the court in Sunday's contest, Powell returned to the starting lineup Wednesday and did much of his damage at the charity stripe. The shooting guard has scored in double figures in all three of his preseason appearances. After averaging 21.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals in 58 regular-season appearances with Miami last season, Powell should have ample scoring opportunities as a veteran presence on a young Chicago team during the 2026-27 campaign.

Lives at charity stripe in preseason loss Powell registered 17 points (3-6 FG, 1-2 FT, 10-12 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal over 19 minutes during the Bulls' 104-100 preseason loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact Powell attempted only six field goals during Friday's exhibition game, but thanks to his work at the charity stripe, he finished as the Bulls' second-leading scorer behind rookie Caleb Wilson (21 points). Powell inked a two-year contract with the Bulls in July following his 2025-26 All-Star campaign with the Heat and will form a starting backcourt with Josh Giddey for the upcoming season. Matas Buzelis left Friday's game early due to an ankle injury, and although it was likely a precautionary move to leave him off the court the rest of the way, it's an injury that could impact Powell's usage early on in the season.

Efficient in preseason debut Powell recorded 14 points (3-4 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), one assist and one steal in 14 minutes during Wednesday's 124-117 preseason victory over Phoenix.

Impact Powell made an immediate impact in his first preseason appearance with Chicago, connecting on three triples while requiring just four field-goal attempts. The veteran wing appears poised to provide the Bulls with an established perimeter scoring threat alongside Josh Giddey, though his offensive role will become clearer as the preseason progresses.
