Williams is questionable for Tuesday's game against Utah due to left Achilles tendonitis.
EDGE Analysis
Williams has suited up in 10 consecutive contests for the Thunder, averaging 4.1 points and 3.7 rebounds in 14.5 minutes per game. His status will need to be monitored in advance of Tuesday's game, as Achilles injuries can carry risk of aggravation.

Williams registered three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and one rebound in six minutes during Monday's 112-105 loss to the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Williams was back in the rotation Monday, albeit for a short amount of time. He ended with three points in six minutes, continuing his poor season. He is the 321st-ranked player in nine-category leagues, averaging 3.5 points and 3.1 rebounds in 11.5 minutes per contest. Outside of extremely deep leagues, Williams holds no fantasy value.

Williams (hip) is available for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Williams left Wednesday's win over the Knicks due to a right hip contusion and was listed as questionable for Friday, but he'll suit up for a 25th straight game. However, he's not likely to see significant playing time, as he's averaging just 6.6 minutes per game over his last five appearances.

Williams (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
EDGE Analysis
Williams exited Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to a right hip contusion, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up two days later. He's played single-digit minutes in each of his last five appearances, but Chet Holmgren and Kenrich Williams could see a few additional minutes if the 21-year-old is unable to play.

Williams has been ruled out for the remainder of Wednesday's game against the Knicks with a right hip contusion, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Williams will finish the contest scoreless (0-1 3Pt) with a pair of rebounds over seven minutes. The second-year player has appeared in each of Oklahoma City's last 24 games, but he's been a fringe member of the rotation, as he's seen single-digit minutes in five consecutive contests.

Williams scored three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and added six rebounds and three assists in Thursday's 128-123 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Williams' minutes have fluctuated this season, but he has found ways to contribute off the bench when given the chance, whether that be through scoring or rebounding. In his last five appearances, Williams has averaged 5.2 points, 2.2 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 0.2 steals over 11.6 minutes per game, and it appears his role backing up Chet Holmgren will remain constant for the foreseeable future.

Williams ended with two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across four minutes during Thursday's 128-109 win over Golden State.
EDGE Analysis
Williams missed the first five games of the season due to a hamstring injury but played double-digit minutes in six straight matchups after that. During that stretch, he averaged 4.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 14.5 minutes per game. Last year, Williams was a regular fixture in the starting lineup, but he's been pushed to a bench role with Chet Holmgren healthy and dominating. It was surprising to see Williams' playing time limited during Thursday's blowout, but he should remain a key part of the Thunder's bench unit moving forward.

Williams (hamstring) logged six points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists in 15 minutes in Friday's 141-139 loss to the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Available for the first time all season after missing the Thunder's first five games with a hamstring strain, Williams stepped into the Oklahoma City rotation Friday, serving as the backup to starting center Chet Holmgren. With Holmgren having already established himself as one of the best young big men in the NBA, Williams likely won't have the opportunity to see his minutes increase much more from what he received Friday so long as Holmgren stays healthy.

Williams (hamstring) is available for Friday's game versus the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Williams is set to make his season debut Friday after being upgraded from questionable to available with a hamstring injury. The second-year big man is expected to serve as the Thunder's backup center behind Chet Holmgren but could see a minutes restriction against the Warriors.

Williams (hamstring) is questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Williams hasn't yet made his season debut due to his hamstring injury, but he was recalled from the G League's Oklahoma City Blue on Wednesday after practicing with the team. If he's able to suit up against Golden State, it wouldn't be surprising to see him face a minutes restriction.
