The Clippers can be said to be the team that has performed well in the last few games, and I believe they also want to maintain a strong performance before the start of All-Star Weekend. On Super Bowl day, the Clippers updated their injury messages about Norman Powell.
According to the Clippers, the team's new signing backcourt Norman Powell suffered a fracture of the sesamoid bone in his left foot, the team currently has no surgical treatment plan, and Powell does not have a clear comeback schedule:
Powell was injured when he slammed the ball into the basket with the ball left in the third quarter of the Clippers against the Lone Rangers:
After the game, Powell said that he still had obvious pain in his left foot and said that he would see how he felt next.
"They thought it was just a callus, I don't know how to describe it, but my big toe bottom joint felt like it was hit, I did sprain my right ankle, but I sprained my ankle more or less every game, so it's okay."
Considering that the Clippers have announced that Powell has entered an indefinite truce due to a fracture of the sesamoid bone on the inside of his left foot, and it is worth noting that Powell's current treatment plan is non-surgical rehabilitation, this also means that Powell's injury needs further evaluation before it is possible to determine whether surgery is needed.
So far this season, Powell has averaged 21 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists in three games for the Clippers, in addition to a 47.6 percent shooting percentage and 42.9 percent three-point shooting. Considering that the Clippers have already faced injuries from superstars such as Kawhi Leonard and Paul George this season, the injury of a player like Powell is certainly a very big blow to the Clippers.
