Norman Powell was recently traded to the Miami Heat (via the LA Clippers) as part of a three-team deal.

Powell is coming off a fantastic season for the Clippers where he nearly made the 2025 NBA All-Star Game.

The 32-year-old had averages of 21.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 steals per contest while shooting 48.4% from the field and 41.8% from the three-point range in 60 games.

Powell has also played for the Portland Trail Blazers and Toronto Raptors.

During the 2019 season, he helped the Raptors win the NBA Championship over Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors.

Powell joins a Heat team that features Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro and Andrew Wiggins.

They were swept in the first round of the 2025 NBA playoffs by the Cleveland Cavaliers.

That said, the Heat have made the NBA Finals twice since 2020.
