EDGE Analysis

All 13 boards came at the defensive end of the court, while the three rejections were his best performance at the rim since Feb. 11. Williams has pulled down double-digit rebounds in five of the last 14 games (two starts), averaging 9.4 points, 7.4 boards, 2.4 threes, 2.2 assists and 1.0 combined steals and blocks in 21.6 minutes over that stretch. He saw a slightly larger role Monday due to Isaiah Hartenstein (calf) and Jalen Williams (hamstring) sitting out the second half of a back-to-back set.

Williams closed Friday's 131-113 win over the Bulls with 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two blocks and two steals in 19 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Williams was one of the players who benefited directly from the absence of Chet Holmgren (hip), and he responded by posting a double-double -- his first since March 9 -- and leaving his mark on the defensive end. This was the third time in which he recorded at least four steals-plus-blocks, and his contributions from the second unit have been massive for the Thunder, making him a valuable streaming option in most formats due to his ability to impact both ends of the court. Williams is in the midst of a career-best season and is averaging 7.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game, but those numbers increase considerably if analyzing what he's done after the All-Star break. In 18 games in that span, he's averaging 10.3 points and 6.9 boards per game while shooting 50 percent from three-point range.

Williams posted 18 points (6-8 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one block across 19 minutes during Monday's 123-103 victory over the 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

Williams was active from deep, knocking down a team-high five triples in a blowout victory. The Arkansas product has now made five-plus threes in four contests this season, with three of those performances coming over his past 12 games. Williams isn't relied on as a major offensive contributor for the Thunder, but he's proven capable of providing a spark off the bench and logging quality minutes when called upon.

EDGE Analysis

After a scuffle near the end of the second quarter, Williams, along with Ajay Mitchell, Cason Wallace and Justin Champagnie were ejected from the contest. The 23-year-old went scoreless (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-0) with four rebounds and one block in nine minutes of work. The Thunder will be in action again on Monday in Philadelphia, although it's unknown if Williams will be available for that one. If not, Kenrich Williams would be the favorite to take his place in the rotation.

EDGE Analysis

While Shai Gilgeous-Alexander stole the show with the game-winner, Williams turned in a strong performance of his own with a double-double fueled by a career-high seven three-pointers. The big man entered Monday's contest averaging a career-high 1.4 made threes per game while shooting a career-low 35.0 percent from beyond the arc, with his previous season high being five triples. The 23-year-old is now up to five double-doubles this season, with three of those coming over his past seven contests.
