Starting vs. Boston
Powell will start against the Celtics on Friday, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
Analyse
With Daniel Gafford (ankle) and Marvin Bagley (neck) unavailable, Powell will enter the starting five. As a starter this season (seven games), the veteran big man has averaged 6.0 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.9 steals in 28.6 minutes per contest.

Paces bench in loss
Powell recorded 12 points (3-5 FG, 6-8 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 117-90 loss to the Hornets.
Analyse
With Marvin Bagley (neck) unavailable for a third straight game, Powell saw significant minutes off the bench once again. He led the second unit in points Tuesday, scoring in double figures for the second time over that three-game span. The veteran center is likely to continue seeing 20-plus minutes of action as Daniel Gafford's primary backup for as long as Bagley is sidelined.

Sniffs double-double
Powell logged nine points (4-5 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 21 minutes during Sunday's 100-87 loss to the Thunder.
Analyse
Powell made the most of his 21-minute cameo Sunday and finished just one point and one rebound away from posting a double-double. That said, Powell has played off the bench in his last 12 appearances but is averaging only 10.7 minutes per contest. Even if his last two outings are encouraging, he's not seeing the floor enough to be considered a reliable fantasy alternative even in the deepest formats.

Double-doubles off bench Friday
Powell recorded 13 points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 11 rebounds and one assist over 23 minutes off the bench during Friday's 124-105 loss to Memphis.
Analyse
The veteran center produced his second double-double of the season, with the first coming Jan. 22 against the Warriors. Powell has struggled to get consistent court time even with Dereck Lively (foot) out for the season and Anthony Davis (finger) now in Washington. Friday's 23 minutes represented Powell's highest workload in February and just the third time in eight appearances this month he logged double-digit minutes.
