Back from a recent shoulder injury, Powell scores 27 points and makes all 10 of his free throws to pace the Clippers to a 125-118 victory and a season sweep of their Hallway rivals.

Against the Lakers on Wednesday night, Powell turned up the heat, scoring 27 points on 8-of-15 shooting and hitting all 10 of his free throws, their fourth this season, at Crypto.com Arena.
