Powell was the star of the third and fourth quarter, giving Raptors a 15-point lead with a three-point shot and a nice dunk in the fourth quarter which sealed the win for Toronto Raptors in Game 5.
A Game 6 win will surely take the Raptors to the Eastern Conference. Game 6 will be on Thursday, April 26th.
