Nearly perfect from field Williams registered 17 points (7-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Monday's 102-72 win over Dallas.

She missed just one shot from the floor en route to posting a career-high scoring mark. However, there's a strong chance this might have been an outlier rather than a sign of things to come. Even after playing 21 minutes Monday, Williams is averaging a mere 8.7 minutes per game in three outings off the bench this season.
