Norman Powell Cleared to Play Friday vs. Hawks After Back Tightness

Norman Powell (back) is available to play Friday against the Hawks, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. Powell missed Miami's final two games before the All-Star break due to lower-back tightness and was previously listed as questionable. He stated he's ready for Friday's contest, though his status for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies will be interesting to monitor.
