While playing at NC State, Powell averaged 12.4 ppg and 5.2 rpg in his sophomore year (2002–2003). He was not selected in the 2003 NBA Draft and played in Europe. However, he worked out for numerous teams and was eventually signed by the Dallas Mavericks, who were looking for a power forward to develop behind star Dirk Nowitzki. He played two games in 2003–04 with Lokomotiv-Rostov in the Russian Superleague before finishing the season with Euroride Scafati of the Italian Lega 2. In 2004–05, Powell averaged 16.6 PPG and 11.9 RPG with Pepsi Caserta of the Italian League.
At the beginning of the 2005–2006 season, Powell was in the D-League and put up solid numbers until he was called up to the NBA, where he played only in "garbage time," when the game had already been practically decided. But, after injuries to starting small forward Josh Howard and backup power forward Keith Van Horn, he began to get more time when Nowitzki was in need of rest.
He was traded on July 23, 2006, along with Darrell Armstrong and Rawle Marshall to the Indiana Pacers in exchange for Anthony Johnson He had a guaranteed contract for the 2006–2007 season with the Pacers.
On January 17, 2007, Powell was dealt to the Golden State Warriors along with teammates Stephen Jackson, Sarunas Jasikevicius, and Al Harrington for Troy Murphy, Mike Dunleavy, Ike Diogu, and Keith McLeod.[1]
On August 14, he joined his fourth team in three years, signing with the Los Angeles Clippers.[2] He was later waived as a result of a surplus of big men on the team.[3]
On August 14, 2008, Powell signed a contract with the Los Angeles Lakers to replace the departed Ronny Turiaf.[4]
After starting center Andrew Bynum went down with an injury, Powell began to play a substantial amount of minutes and had his best pro-season yet. However, with Bynum's return, Powell saw almost all of his minutes cut. On June 14, 2009, Powell won his first NBA championship in a 99–86 victory over the Orlando Magic. On June 17, 2010, Powell won his second straight championship in a 83–79 Game 7 victory over the Boston Celtics.
On July 26, 2010, after winning two championship rings with the Lakers, Powell signed a 1-year deal worth $1.1 million with the Atlanta Hawks.
In the summer of 2011, Powell signed with the Liaoning Dinosaurs of China.[5]
After playing in China, Powell signed to play in Switzerland.[6]
In 2012, Powell agreed to a deal with the Brujos de Guayama of the BSN, Puerto Rico's professional basketball league.
