Up to 4 years of signing 128.5 million ~ The Clippers are not in a hurry to renew Powell. If necessary, they can be used for large transactions.

During this offseason, Clippers player Norman Powell is eligible to sign a four-year, $128.5 million contract.

According to HoopsHype famous reporter Michael Scotto, considering that Powell's contract is still one year away (2025-26 season, salary of $20.48 million), the Clippers are not in a hurry to renew his contract.

Several sources revealed that the Clippers hope to maintain considerable cap space flexibility in the summer of 2027, with Zubac being the only contract left for the team (the salary in the 2027-28 season is about $21 million).

Michael Scotto said that Powell's expiration contract is also a valuable bargaining chip if needed. If the Clippers decide to make big deals in the offseason or before the trade deadline next season, then Powell's contract is also one of the valuable bargaining chips for star players.

In the regular season of the 2024-25 season, Powell played 60 games, averaging 21.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.2 steals per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 41.8%, scoring a career high; in the playoffs, Powell played 7 games, averaging 16 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game.
