Impact Williams drew another start Saturday with Cooper Flagg (ankle) sidelined and managed to remain locked in on both ends of the court.

Back in starting lineup Williams is in the Mavericks' starting lineup against the Jazz on Thursday.

Impact Williams will make his 10th start of the season Thursday (and first since Nov. 24 against the Heat) due to the absences of Cooper Flagg (ankle) and Max Christie (illness). Williams is coming off his fifth 20-point-plus performance of the season Wednesday against the Nuggets, and over his last seven outings he has averaged 16.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.9 steals over 24.1 minutes per game.

Puts up 20 points in loss Williams chipped in 20 points (6-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-12 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 118-109 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Williams reached 20 points for the fifth time this campaign, as he was able to step up in the absence of Cooper Flagg (ankle) who left this game after 15 minutes. Williams is averaging 13.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 21.7 minutes over his last five games, and he'll be a solid streaming option against Utah on Thursday if the Mavericks are shorthanded once again.
