Raptors' Norman Powell: Explodes for career-high 43 points

Powell popped for 43 points (14-18 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 7-9 FT) and three rebounds in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 116-112 loss to the Pistons.

Powell single-handedly kept the Raptors within striking distance, setting a new career high in scoring in the process. He got off to a slow start, but Powell has averaged 24.3 points per game across 24 contests since joining the starting lineup on a full-time basis, and it's hard to see him going back to the bench even if the team gets fully healthy.
