Powell has appreciated the team’s faith in him and the clear expectation that he’ll reach high standards.
Clippers coach Tyronn Lue keeps bringing up the subject and Norman Powell continues not to listen when the conversation turns to the Sixth Man of the Year award.
“If I’m in the running and I get it, great, but I think the main focus is always trying to help the team win and be the last team standing at the end of the year,” Powell said. “That’s my main focus and whatever accolade you get on the way there, it’s a bonus.”Powell is averaging 13.7 points off the bench this season and 16.2 points in the past 10 games. In seven of his past eight games, he has reached double figures, punctuated by his 30 points inThe guard also is contributing 2.
Powell didn’t look much like a star when the season began. He struggled to find his spot in a crowded rotation. He found enough touches to score in double figures in just two of his first eight games. Lue took notice. “We knew what he can do,” Lue said. “Well, I knew what he can do offensively, scoring a basketball and like we said before, he works too hard. He puts too much work in for his offense not to come around.Powell, a 2017 second-round pick out of UCLA, said earlier this season that he was “nowhere where I needed to be. Didn’t expect it, but one thing about me, I always figured it out.”
