Mavericks' Dwight Powell: Low playing time continues Thursday

Powell recorded two points (1-1 FG, 0-1 FT) and three rebounds in eight minutes during Thursday's 109-95 victory over the Hawks.

Powell hasn't seen meaningful playing time since the trade deadline Feb. 8, which coincides with the Mavericks acquiring Daniel Gafford from the Wizards. Powell is firmly behind Gafford and Maxi Kleber in the big man rotation, even with Dereck Lively expected to miss time due to a right knee injury. The last time Powell scored in double digits was Dec. 28 against the Timberwolves.
