Auburn guard Justin Powell 'day-to-day' after head injury Auburn freshman guard Justin Powell is "day-to-day" after suffering a head injury in last Saturday's loss at Texas A&M.
Considered day-to-day Powell (head) is considered day-to-day heading into Wednesday's game against Mississippi State, Josh Vitale of the Montgomery Advertiser reports.
Impact Powell was injured against Texas A&M over the weekend and his status is still murky for Wednesday. He has started seven of 10 games on the year, so Auburn would have to make a major lineup adjustment if he's unavailable against the Bulldogs. Chase Maasdorp would likely start at point guard if Powell can't go.

Suffers head injury Powell suffered a head injury late in the first half against Texas A&M on Saturday, Justin Ferguson of AuburnObserver.com reports.
Impact Powell was able to return to the game, which suggests the injury wasn't particularly serious, though head coach Bruce Pearl said he "didn't look right" upon his return. His total of two points on the night would seem to back up that idea. Whether or not the issue results in an absence for the Freshman guard remains to be seen.

Comes close to double-double Powell posted 26 points (7-9 FG, 7-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), nine assists and four rebounds across 31 minutes during Friday's 90-81 win over South Alabama.
Impact Powell made the most of his first start of the season, drilling seven of his nine three-pointers and ended just one assist shy of a double-double -- all of that while also committing just one turnover. Powell had eclipsed the 20-minute mark in each of his previous three appearances off the bench, though, but he might have done enough to remain in the starting five for the team's upcoming games.
