Williams scored 16 points (7-13 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT) to go along with 10 rebounds, one assist and one block across 33 minutes in Saturday's win over the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Williams attempted a career-high 13 shots from the field, aided at least in part by the absence of both Lauri Markkanen (shoulder) and Otto Porter (back). He also took advantage of his increased role to grab double-digit rebounds for the first time in his career -- also leading to his first double-double. This performance continues what has been a very positive run for Williams, as he's averaging 13.8 points and 5.2 rebounds while shooting 52.9 percent from the field across his last five contests.

Williams went for a career-high 20 points (7-11 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds, two steals, one assist and one block across 34 minutes in Friday's loss to the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Williams has seen his point total increase now in three consecutive games. In addition to his career-best scoring output, the FSU product also made a career-high seven field goals. In his last three games, Williams is averaging 14.0 points and 5.0 rebounds per game while shooting 50.3 percent from the floor.

Williams scored 12 points (6-12 FG, 0-3 3PT, 0-1 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 32 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

Williams remains inconsistent in his rookie season, though this was one of his more well-rounded performances of late. He had recorded only two rebounds combined across his last three games, though he bounced back to rack up a minimum of seven boards in a game for the fourth time in his career. Despite struggling from three-point range, Williams managed to score well and has now reached double-figures in each of his last three contests.

Williams had 11 points (4-7 FG, 1-3 3PT, 2-2 FT) in Saturday's loss to Portland.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie continues to be a fixture in the starting lineup, but he's not a viable fantasy commodity in most formats. Nonetheless, Williams has already flashed some potential as a scorer, shooter and defender, so he's a name to keep a closer eye on in dynasty formats. Over his last five games, Williams is averaging 7.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 0.8 threes in 20.8 minutes.

Williams scored 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-4 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with eight rebounds, one assist and one block across 31 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

It was Williams' second game since returning from a one-game absence due to a hip injury. After managing only 16 minutes in his first game, he nearly doubled his playing time in his second contest. The results were fairly strong, as he converted well around the basket and also connected on a pair of three-point shots. In addition, Williams also managed to match his career high with eight rebounds.

Williams (hip) will be available Friday against the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Williams will play through a bruised right hip that caused him to miss the Bulls' most recent game. Over his past five appearances, he's averaging 10.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals in 29.3 minutes.

Williams (hip) is listed as probable for Friday's road game against the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Williams wasn't able to play during Monday's loss to the Rockets, but it looks like he's on track to return Friday. The rookie is averaging 26.9 minutes through 13 games.

Williams (hip) practiced Thursday and should tentatively be considered questionable for Friday's game against the Hornets, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams missed the Bulls' most recent game, a five-point win over the Rockets, but it seems like he could be back in action as soon as Friday. He's having a solid rookie season, averaging 10.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 26.9 minutes.

Williams (hip) was limited at Wednesday's practice, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie missed Monday's game against the Rockets due to a bruised hip, and he was limited to only running during Wednesday's session. He hasn't been ruled out of Friday's game against the Hornets, but Williams will need to make some progress over the next 48 hours in order to play.

Williams (hip) will not play in Monday's game against the Rockets, Cayleigh Griffin of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

EDGE Analysis

Williams went from probable, to questionable, to out within two hours of tip-off. It is unclear if he suffered some type of setback with his hip issue or if the Bulls are just opting to err on the side of caution with their rookie. His absence, along with Otto Porter (back), could lead to extra minutes for Garrett Temple, Denzel Valentine and Thaddeus Young in some fashion.
