The LA Clippers secured a decisive victory over the Dallas Mavericks, winning 118-95 despite missing star player Kawhi Leonard. The Mavericks were also shorthanded, missing key players Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. James Harden, Norman Powell, and Ivica Zubac stepped up for the Clippers, showcasing their depth.

Norman Powell made a strong case for an All-Star selection, averaging impressive stats and leading the Clippers to a solid record in Leonard's absence. His performance could make it difficult to overlook him for the All-Star game if he continues at this pace.
