In the NBA regular season, the Heat defeated the Warriors 110-96.

After the game, Wiggins accepted an interview with reporters. Talking about Powell taking over the game in the final quarter, he said: "He has performed very well all season, so we knew he would break out sooner or later, and he did - in the most important fourth quarter of the game."

In this campaign, Powell played 28 minutes, making 10 of 14 shots, 4 of 7 three-pointers, 1 of 1 free throw, and scored a game-high 25 points plus 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal, with a plus-minus value of +11. In the final quarter, he scored 17 points on 7-of-8 shooting.
