He\u2019s shooting 47.4 percent from the floor, 39.6 percent from 3-point range and 84.3 percent from the charity stripe. <\/p>\n<p>Ironically enough, All-Star weekend will be held in Inglewood, Calif., inside Intuit Dome, the Los Angeles Clippers\u2019 home arena. Before getting traded to Miami in July, Powell spent the previous three-and-a-half seasons with the Clippers.<\/p>\n<p>The league is debuting a new Team USA v.

The annual spectacle will begin Sunday, Feb. 15, at 5 p.m. EST. <\/p>\n<p>Powell was the lone Heat player to be named an All-Star this year. A few of his teammates will be Spurs sensation Victor Wembanyama (France), Lakers\u2019 superstar Luka Doncic (Slovenia) and Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (Canada).<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>This is a developing news story.
