Listed questionable for Monday Williamson (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against the Thunder.

Impact This isn't much of an update, as Williamson remains day-to-day.

Gets questionable tag Williamson (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Williamson has a chance to end a six-game absence with a hamstring strain. With Sunday being the first leg of a back-to-back for the Pelicans, the star forward could suit up for one half of the set and sit out the other. If Williamson is upgraded to available for Sunday, his return would likely reduce the playing time of Saddiq Bey, Derik Queen and Micah Peavy.

Cleared for contact Williamson (hamstring) has been cleared for contact and he was able to get through some 1-on-1 work at Wednesday's shootaround, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Impact Williamson remains without an official timetable for his return, but being cleared for contact and ramping up to individual work are big steps in his recovery. We'll know he's close once he's cleared for 5-on-5 drills, but until that happens, we can assume he's week-to-week.

Remaining out vs. Portland Williamson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Trail Blazers.

Impact Williamson will miss his fifth consecutive game due to a strained left hamstring. The 25-year-old big man can be considered doubtful ahead of Friday's game against the Lakers until the Pelicans provide another update on his status.
