INJURIES

Out for preseason The Thunder announced Thursday that Williams is out with a right hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated after the preseason, Brandon Rahbar of DailyThunder.com reports.
Impact It's unclear if Williams will miss any regular-season action, but hamstring injuries can often linger. With Kenrich Williams (knee) also out, Ousmane Dieng could receive increased playing time early on off the bench in Oklahoma City's frontcourt.

Goo to go against San Antonio Williams (back) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Spurs, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports.
Impact Williams has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday despite dealing with a lower back contusion. Williams is averaging 4.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.2 assists in 15.6 minutes across 10 his last outings.
APRIL 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Wednesday Williams is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Spurs due to a low back contusion.
Impact Williams is in danger of missing his first contest since March 22 due to a back injury. With Gordon Hayward (lower leg) also questionable, the Thunder could be thin on forward depth against the Spurs.
APRIL 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Headed to bench Williams is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
Impact Cason Wallace will replace Williams in the starting lineup Wednesday evening, so Williams' fantasy outlook takes a hit. As a member of the reserves this season, Williams owns averages of 3.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and not much else on 40.3 percent shooting in 12.6 minutes a night.
APRIL 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Season-best outing in first start Williams recorded six points (2-8 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 12 assists, six rebounds and one steal over 28 minutes in Tuesday's 109-105 loss to Philadelphia.
Impact Williams entered the starting lineup in place of the injured Jalen Williams (ankle), putting together his best outing of the season in his first start. Williams led all players in the contest in assists, setting a new season high and his first game with 10 or more dimes. Williams posted his second game of the year with at least five points, five rebounds and five assists, the other occurrence taking place Nov. 25 against Philadelphia.
APRIL 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Gets starting nod Williams is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus the 76ers.
Impact Williams will make his first start of the season Tuesday in place of Jalen Williams (ankle). Williams will likely be used as extra size on the interior to help guard Joel Embiid.
APRIL 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Gets 17 minutes in return Williams (knee) played 17 minutes off the bench in Friday's 107-100 win over Miami, finishing with five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, one steal and one block.
Impact After missing the Thunder's previous three games with a left knee sprain, Williams slid back into the rotation as Oklahoma City's backup center. The second-year player is averaging 5.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.2 three-pointers, 0.6 blocks and 0.4 steals in 15.2 minutes per game over his five appearances since the All-Star break.
MARCH 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Not listed on injury report Williams (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's matchup with Miami.
Impact It appears Williams will be back in action Friday night following a three-game absence, so he should be available for his usual minutes in the lower teens. However, as long as Chet Holmgren is healthy, Williams won't be able to earn enough minutes to be able to impact most leagues.
MARCH 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Another absence coming Wednesday Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Portland.
Impact Williams will miss his third consecutive game due to a left knee sprain. His absence was felt in Oklahoma City's loss to the Lakers on Monday, and his next opportunity to take the court comes Friday versus Miami.
MARCH 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Downgraded to out Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers.
Impact Williams will miss a second straight game due to a left knee sprain. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Portland. In Williams' absence, Aaron Wiggins and Gordon Hayward are candidates for a few extra minutes off the bench.
MARCH 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't face Phoenix Williams (knee) has been ruled out to face the Suns on Sunday.
Impact Williams was diagnosed with a left knee sprain earlier this week, so his absence from this game is not surprising, and it wouldn't be shocking if that's the case for a few more contests, too. Williams has played regularly off the bench for OKC this season, making 50 appearances and logging 12.6 minutes per game thus far. His next chance to play will come Monday against the Lakers.

Mark Daigneault Doubles Down on Philosophy, Updates Jaylin Williams' Injury Status At Thunder practice, Mark Daigneault doubled down on his lineup philosophy and updated Jaylin Williams’ injury status.
MARCH 1, 2024 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM
Diagnosed with left knee sprain Coach Mark Daigneault announced Friday that Williams has been diagnosed with a left knee sprain, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports.
Impact Williams presumably didn't practice Friday, and his status moving forward remains unclear. Daigneault said the team would provide more information when available, so it appears we're in the wait-and-see part of the evaluation. The Thunder's next game is Sunday in Phoenix, and Williams can be considered questionable, at best, for that contest.
MARCH 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Productive off bench Williams racked up five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 19 minutes during Tuesday's 112-95 victory over the Rockets.
Impact Williams had a strong night off the bench despite seeing limited minutes. Posting reliable fantasy numbers behind Chet Holmgren isn't easy, but Williams has made the most of his opportunities with 5.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 three-pointers over his last four games in just 15.8 minutes.

No. 12 Auburn makes school-record 40 free throws in 99-81 win over No. 16 Alabama

Will play Tuesday Williams (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Jazz.
Impact Williams has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday despite dealing with left Achilles tendinitis. The second-year big man will likely continue to serve as one of the Thunder's primary backups in the frontcourt.
FEBRUARY 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Tuesday Williams is questionable for Tuesday's game against Utah due to left achilles tendonitis.
Impact 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.
FEBRUARY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Logs just six minutes Monday 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.
Impact 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.
JANUARY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Will play Friday Williams (hip) is available for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact 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.
DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Friday Williams (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Nuggets.
Impact 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.
DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Won't return Wednesday 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.
Impact Williams will finish the contest scoreless (0-1 3Pt) with a pair of rebounds over seven minutes. Though the game is in the fourth period, Kenrich Williams would be the likely candidate to pick up a few minutes. Williams' next chance to play will come Friday at Denver.
DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scores three in loss 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.
Impact 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.
DECEMBER 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Season-low four minutes 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.
Impact 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.
NOVEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Part of rotation in season debut 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.
Impact 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.
