Williams (illness) will start Monday's tilt against the Celtics, Mike Peasley of the Dallas Mavericks Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams will play his second straight game after missing eight games due to a sprained left big toe, despite being questionable with an illness earlier in the day. He played 16 minutes during Saturday's contest, and could be in line for a similar workload Monday considering he's likely still recovering from his injury and an illness.
