Clippers' leading-scorer Norman Powell (hamstring) out vs. Kings

Los Angeles Clippers leading scorer Norman Powell will miss a second consecutive game on Friday when he sits out against the Sacramento Kings with a left hamstring strain.

Powell, who has averaged 23.3 points over 15 games this season, was injured in the first quarter of a 102-99 victory against the Golden State Warriors on Monday. He finished the game and scored a team-best 23 points.

Powell, 31, did not play in the Clippers' 104-93 victory over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. Los Angeles, however, became the first team to score at least 100 points against the Magic in seven games.

Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue said Powell's status will be reassessed before a road game Sunday against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Without Powell against Orlando, Amir Coffey stepped up with 18 points and Jordan Miller played 16 minutes off the bench and scored eight points.

In 10 NBA seasons, Powell has averaged 12.6 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 572 career games (214 starts). He was thrust into a primary scoring role this season after the departure of Paul George to the 76ers and a chronic knee condition for Kawhi Leonard, that has prevented the six-time All-Star from playing a game this season.
