Williams is probable for Monday's matchup versus Milwaukee due to left ankle soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Williams will likely suit up Monday, but he could take a seat for the second half of Chicago's back-to-back set Tuesday versus Denver. Williams has started seven of the Bulls' past eight games and is playing well, averaging 13.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.0 blocks in 31.3 minutes per game.

Williams closed with 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals across 29 minutes during Saturday's 124-118 victory over New Orleans.
EDGE Analysis
Williams cobbled together another strong performance Saturday, scoring double-digits for the sixth straight game. Although his production has come at a time when others have missed time due to injury, this is what managers had hoped to see from him coming into the season. Despite the small sample size, Williams is worth grabbing in standard leagues, just in case he can turn this into sustainable production.

Williams ended with 14 points (6-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 124-97 loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Williams continues to round into some sort of form after a terrible start to the season. He has scored double-digits in four straight games, playing at least 28 minutes in three of the four. The Bulls are a dumpster fire right now, meaning fantasy value is hard to project. While it is unlikely Williams maintains this production, he could be worth a flier, just to see if the upward trend continues.

Williams supplied 20 points (7-9 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and four rebounds over 35 minutes during Sunday's 118-109 loss to the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Williams was moved back into the starting lineup with Alex Caruso (foot) unavailable. The former really struggled in this role prior to Sunday, as he averaged 5.6 points and 4.6 rebounds in seven previous starts. Williams looked much more comfortable Sunday, and he seems to be trending in the right direction. Over his last three games, Williams has averaged 14.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 2.7 three-pointers.

Williams is starting Sunday's game against the Nets.
EDGE Analysis
Williams retreated to the bench for Friday's game against the Raptors but will join the starting lineup for the second time in the last three games with Alex Caruso (toe) unavailable. Over seven starts this year, Williams has averaged 5.6 points and 4.6 rebounds in 25.7 minutes per game.

Williams amassed 10 points (3-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists in 37 minutes during Wednesday's 116-102 loss to the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Williams took on a starting role Wednesday with Zach LaVine (foot) unavailable. While Williams wasn't particularly efficient from the floor, he came within three rebounds of a double-double. He'll likely revert to a reserve role once LaVine is cleared to return, and Williams has averaged 6.4 points and 3.0 rebounds in 20.7 minutes per game over nine appearances off the bench this year.

Williams will enter the starting five for Wednesday's matchup with Oklahoma City.
EDGE Analysis
Williams will slide into the first unit with Zach LaVine (foot) sidelined. In six starts, Williams is averaging 4.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.0 steals-plus-blocks across 24.0 minutes.

EDGE Analysis
As expected, Williams has been upgraded from probable to available. Despite an ongoing finger sprain, Williams has yet to miss a game this season, averaging 5.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.0 steals in 22.1 minutes across 15 appearances (six starts).

Williams logged two points (1-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 15 minutes during Saturday's 102-97 victory over the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Over the first 12 games of the season, Williams made six starts and averaged 6.3 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.9 blocks in 23.7 minutes per game. However, over the last two games, Williams has managed just two points, six rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block in 28 total minutes. As long as DeMar DeRozan, Alex Caruso and Torrey Craig are healthy, Williams' path to consistent playing time is blocked.
