Los Angeles Clippers guards Norman Powell (shin) and Terance Mann (shoulder) were both at shootaround on Wednesday morning. Mann said he is not concerned about his strained right shoulder following Sunday's dismal home loss to the Atlanta Hawks, but he remains officially listed as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Portland Trail Blazers. Powell is dealing with a left lower leg contusion after missing Sunday's defeat but is trending in the right direction for a revenge game against Portland. The 30-year-old sharpshooting swingman has played a more pronounced role as L.A.'s sixth man with Russell Westbrook (hand) out, hovering around fantasy's top 150 over his last eight games on averages of 16.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.6 three-pointers, and 1.0 steals in 28.8 minutes. Wednesday's matchup is a soft one against a Blazers squad that ranks 26th in opponent field-goal percentage (49.2%).
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (leg) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Trail Blazers. A left lower leg contusion took him out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, and Powell could be out for a second consecutive game. With Powell missing, Amir Coffey saw the most minutes off the Clippers bench on Sunday and should get extra action again on Wednesday, especially if Terance Mann (shoulder) also sits out the contest.
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Terance Mann (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Portland. He's dealing with a right shoulder strain and could be out of the lineup for the first time since early November. Norman Powell (leg) would benefit from Mann's absence but is also questionable for the game. If both players are out, we should see Amir Coffey play a bigger part in the rotation in a favorable matchup against a struggling team.
Los Angeles Clippers guard Norman Powell (leg) is out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The 30-year-old's injury occurred in Friday's 112-104 loss to New Orleans. Powell had missed just one game this season before being announced as unavailable before Sunday's tilt. If the former Toronto Raptors guard should miss an extended period of time, Amir Coffey and Brandon Boston could see an uptick in minutes in the Clippers rotation.
Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (shoulder) is available for Sunday's tilt with the Atlanta Hawks. The 34-year-old has been dealing with a left shoulder strain and has missed the last two games. Before being injured, Harden averaged 17.8 points, 8.6 assists, and 5.4 rebounds in 36.0 minutes per game across five contests. Bones Hyland played 24 minutes on Friday against New Orleans. However, with Harden's return, Hyland will see his minutes reduced on Sunday.
