Pops with double-double Williams logged 19 points (6-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Monday's 128-120 victory over the Warriors.

While injuries marred Williams' tenure with Memphis, he's started off strong with his new team, providing an average of 21.8 minutes off the bench. Monday's encouraging double-double could result in more playing time for the former first-round pick.

Questionable for Sunday Williams is questionable for Sunday's game against the Knicks due to right hip tightness, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Impact Williams is in danger of missing his first game of the season with the injury, though a decision on his status should be made closer to Sunday's tipoff at 7 p.m. ET. The forward is averaging 9.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals per game across 13 outings (two starts) this season.

Moves back to second unit Williams is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Knicks, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.

Leads way with 23 points Williams closed Wednesday's 139-114 loss to the Celtics with 23 points (8-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 26 minutes.

Impact Williams continues to play well in place of Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle), an unlikely outcome considering Williams was averaging 8.3 points in his first 10 appearances off the bench. The Stanford product has tallied 12 and now 23 points in two straight starts while collecting 15 total rebounds along the way. Given Williams' recent success, look for him to draw another start Friday in New York if Finney-Smith can't go.
