Norman Powell’s first appearance at the NBA All-Star Game afforded the Miami Heat forward the opportunity to play in two All-Star Games, under the World vs. USA format adopted for Sunday’s round-robin event at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Calif.

Ultimately, it left the Miami Heat forward at a double loss, with his Team World falling in a pair of games against domestic talent.

Although born in San Diego, Powell played for the World team because of his time with the Jamaican national team, the country of his father’s heritage.

Playing off the bench in a pair of 12-minute games, Powell first went scoreless on 0-for-3 shooting in 6:55 in his team’s first game, a 37-35 loss to Team Stars, a game that went to overtime and was won on a 3-pointer by Toronto Raptors star Scottie Barnes.

In his team’s second game, Powell closed with five points on 2-of-4 shooting in 6:45, helping tie it late before Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard, playing in his home arena, gave Team Stripes a 48-45 victory with a decisive 3-pointer.

In his 11th season, Powell, 32, was selected as an All-Star reserve by Eastern Conference coaches.

Sunday’s appearance for Powell came after he finished fifth in the 3-point contest on All-Star Saturday a day earlier. Powell remained after that contest to root on Heat teammate Keshad Johnson, who then won the All-Star dunk contest.

Sunday, Heat two-way player Jahmir Young played in the G League All-Star game, where his team was eliminated in the opening round of that four-team tournament, with Young scoring six points on 2-of-4 shooting in 7:08 of action.

The Heat are in the midst of an eight-day All-Star break, to resume their schedule Friday against the Atlanta Hawks at State Farm Arena.
