LA up 97-81 with 8:53 left and trying to survive Stephen Curry, who is up to 33 points and 8 3s.
Curry’s teammates looking like Doncic’s teammates: 48 points on 50 shots. – 12:28 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Hoping Norman Powell isn’t supposed to stay off his feet or anything, ’cause he’s been on his feet on the bench almost as much as Brandon Boston Jr. this game. – 12:05 AM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson

Clippers coach Ty Lue has hope that Norman Powell can return at some point this season. But it remains TBD – 8:51 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
Ty Lue said “hopefully” Norm Powell can return this season after fracturing a bone in his foot. Lue said his scoring and ability to get to the line and attack will be missed. – 8:50 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Warriors will have the same players from Saturday available tonight vs Clippers in LA. Still no Andre Iguodala. Clippers without recently acquired Norman Powell. – 12:51 PM Kurt Helin @basketballtalk

Norman Powell is out indefinitely after suffering a fractured medial sesamoid bone in his left foot. The Clippers say the treatment is non-surgical for now and there is no timetable for his return. – 6:30 PM Jeff Stotts @InStreetClothes
Re: Norm Powell: A sesamoid bone is a type of bone that is embedded within a tendon. For example, the knee cap (patella) is a sesamoid. The sesamoid bones of the big toe sit at the digit’s base and help bear weight and create leverage when pushing off. – 6:23 PM Andrew Greif @AndrewGreif
At least Norm Powell gets to be at the Super Bowl? pic.twitter.com/V6CsVGRvGD – 6:22 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Norman Powell is ALSO at the Super Bowl

Just landed in Los Angeles, so to repeat what everyone has seen earlier, the Clippers get another dose of brutal injury news. No timetable for the return of Norm Powell. He’s played just 3 games with LAC. pic.twitter.com/1UhEMfich3 – 6:19 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
On top of Norman Powell injury news, still awaiting an update on Luke Kennard (ankle discomfort). Ty Lue said yesterday that Kennard was “going through something” as shown here.
He’s at the Super Bowl for the AFC Champion Bengals, so there’s that. pic.twitter.com/EzFfwuk2BD – 6:15 PM Marc Stein @TheSteinLine
No surgery for Norman Powell, Clippers say, but also no timetable for his recovery from a fractured medial sesamoid bone in his left foot.

Here’s the injury to Norman Powell suffered Thursday that threatens to end his season after three games with the Clippers.
Team initially called it a turf toe injury, which was the first sign that things were bad. pic.twitter.com/sZMU02PVVV – 5:55 PM Mirjam Swanson @MirjamSwanson
Clippers announce that guard Norman Powell suffered a fractured medial sesamoid bone in his left foot. The treatment: non-surgical at this time and there is no timetable for his return. – 5:46 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
So to recap:
– Kawhi Leonard (0 games this season after right ACL surgery in July)
– Paul George (0 games since Christmas after torn right elbow UCL)
– Norman Powell (3 games after Portland trade before season-threatening fractured bone in left foot) – 5:44 PM Kurt Helin @basketballtalk

Two days ago Kawhi Leonard dapped up Norman Powell as Powell came to the bench during the game’s first timeout. Tonight they’re both in street clothes on the sideline. Leonard – 8:54 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
Tyronn Lue says that Terance Mann will replace Norman Powell (out) in starting lineup, and rest of lineup will start.
That means Zubac on floor with Doncic, and Lue says that plan will remain the same… – 7:02 PM Ohm Youngmisuk @NotoriousOHM
