Williams (hand) has been cleared to play for Sunday's game against the Thunder, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports. After missing Friday's win against the Hornets, Williams will be back on the floor for the Trail Blazers on Sunday to face the Thunder. The veteran big man has been in and out of the lineup with injuries all season long. Still, he can make an impact when healthy, like he did in the last game he played in Thursday's win in Orlando, finishing with eight points, 12 rebounds, a steal and four blocks in 24 minutes as a starter for Portland.

Cleared to play for Sunday
Williams (hand) has been cleared to play for Sunday's game against the Thunder, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports. After missing Friday's win against the Hornets, Williams will be back on the floor for the Trail Blazers on Sunday to face the Thunder. The veteran big man has been in and out of the lineup with injuries all season long. Still, he can make an impact when healthy, like he did in the last game he played in Thursday's win in Orlando, finishing with eight points, 12 rebounds, a steal and four blocks in 24 minutes as a starter for Portland.
Won't go Friday
Williams has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Hornets due to right hand soreness. Williams will miss the second leg of the club's back-to-back set with the hand issue, and his next chance to play will come Sunday against the Thunder. With the big man joining Deandre Ayton (knee) on the shelf, Donovan Clingan (ankle) and Jabari Walker could see increased roles.
Strong in paint in starting lineup
Williams chipped in eight points (4-6 FG), 12 rebounds, four blocks and one steal over 24 minutes during Thursday's 101-79 victory over Orlando. Williams got his third start of the season Thursday due to Deandre Ayton (knee) being inactive, and Williams led all Portland players in rebounds and blocks while finishing two points shy of a double-double in a balanced performance. Williams set a new season-high mark in rebounds (his previous high was nine boards) and tied his season-best mark in blocks. Williams has tallied at least eight points and eight rebounds in three contests.
Set to start Thursday
Williams is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game versus the Magic, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports. Williams will replace Deandre Ayton (knee) in the starting five Thursday. Williams is averaging 5.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 3.0 blocks and 1.0 steals in 16.0 minutes across his previous two starting appearances this season.
Set to play against Miami
Williams (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Heat, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports. Williams has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday after missing Portland's previous contest due to left ankle soreness. Williams is averaging 3.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 1.0 assists in 15.7 minutes across his last 10 appearances.
Iffy for Tuesday
Williams (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Heat. Williams missed the second leg of Portland's back-to-back set Sunday against the Bulls and remains day-to-day. With Williams out of the lineup Sunday, Deandre Ayton logged 37 minutes, compared to 11 for Jabari Walker.
Not playing Sunday
Williams has been ruled out in advance of Sunday's game against the Bulls due to left ankle soreness, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports. Though Williams is being listed with an injury, he may just be getting some maintenance for the second half of a back-to-back set. While Deandre Ayton (back) was sidelined in Saturday's 125-103 loss to the Rockets, Williams started at center and posted four points (2-3 FG, four rebounds, three assists, three blocks and one steal in 20 minutes. Ayton will be back in action Sunday and should start, while the absences of Williams and Donovan Clingan (ankle) will likely clear the way for either Jabari Walker or Duop Reath to serve as Ayton's backup.
Starting against Houston
Williams will start Saturday's game against Houston, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports. Deandre Ayton (back) is on the shelf Saturday, so this will be a solid opportunity for Williams. He's been effective in limited minutes this season, posting averages of 6.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.5 blocks.
Steps in as backup center
Williams (illness) tallied four points (1-3 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists across 18 minutes in Thursday's 118-89 loss to the Clippers. After missing the last three games -- first because of rest and then due to an illness -- Williams made his return to action Thursday and settled back into the rotation as the top backup to starting center Deandre Ayton. While Donovan Clingan (ankle) is out for at least the next week, Williams should have a regular spot on the second unit. However, Williams' playing time may be more suppressed in competitive contests where the Trail Blazers will likely lean more heavily on Ayton, who played just 24 minutes Thursday.
