Myles Powell (born July 7, 1997) is an American college basketball player at Seton Hall University in the Big East Conference.

Powell is currently in his junior season and was named to the Wooden Award Midseason Top 25 Watch List^[1]. Powell leads the Pirates in scoring^[2] and was named to the Big East All-Academic team for the 2017-2018 season^[3]. He was also named the 2017-2018 BIG EAST Most Improved Player^[4].

Before his time at Seton Hall, Powell attended Medford Tech, Trenton Catholic, and the South Kent School for high school, playing at the varsity level all four years of his high school career. He averaged 25 points per game and 3 rebounds per game at South Kent and averaged 17 points as a junior and 18.5 points as a sophomore at Trenton Catholic. Powell played AAU basketball for NJ Playaz under head coach Jimmy Salmon averaging over 18 points. He was also a participant in the Nike EYBL Peach Jam where he averaged 19.8 points. Powell also scored 17 points in the Jordan Brand Classic Regional Game and was the winner of 2015 Big Strick Classic 3-point contest.

He has scored in double figures in all but one game and has had four games of 30 or better, including 31 against Providence (1/30/2019). After losing 4 seniors from the previous year, Powell was ready to take the reigns on his team, saying, “Last year, we rode Angel and I watched Angel go through it. Learning from the seniors and watching what they went through, now it’s on me. I am definitely ready for it. I’m built for it. My coaching staff believes in me and most of all my teammates believe in me.”^[6]

In one of his most impressive performances to date, Powell scored 31 points against Big East rival Butler at the Prudential Center on January 9th, 2019. After the game, Seton Hall Head Coach Kevin Willard joked about Powell's performance, saying “We’ve kept it real simple — get the ball to Myles and get out of the way... That’s a special play call towards the end of the game.”^[7]
