Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Jazz, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports. Williams was added to the injury report as questionable due to a right ankle sprain, and the medical staff has ultimately determined that he can't go Thursday. Deni Avdija should be in line for an uptick in opportunities as a result.
Williams (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Jazz. Contrary to the Trail Blazers' injury report before their previous game at Dallas, they have listed Williams with a sprain to his right ankle instead of his left. Either way, he is questionable for a second straight game, the first resulting in his absence against Dallas.
Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Dallas, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports. Williams played in the Blazers' last three games after missing the prior seven contests due to a concussion. The ankle injury is a new one, and it will force him to observe Monday's game in street clothes. Williams' next opportunity to play will be against the Jazz on Thursday. Williams' absence opens the door for Donovan Clingan, Jabari Walker and Deni Avdija to see more minutes off the bench behind Jerami Grant and Deandre Ayton.
Williams is questionable for Monday's game against the Mavericks with a left ankle sprain. This is a new issue for Williams, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see the Trail Blazers take a cautious approach here. The center has played an average of just 11.0 minutes in his previous two appearances.
Williams (concussion/conditioning) finished with eight points (4-4 FG), three rebounds and one assist over 17 minutes during Sunday's 116-109 loss to Phoenix. Williams returned to action following a seven-game absence due to a concussion and then reconditioning. With Deandre Ayton (illness) sidelined, Williams operated as the primary backup to Donovan Clingan, who made his first start since Nov. 23. When Ayton and Clingan are both healthy, it's unclear how much playing time will be available for Williams, who'll likely have to play out of position at times if he wants to maintain a consistent role.
Williams (reconditioning) is available for Sunday's game against the Suns, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports. Williams will return to action after missing the last seven games due to a concussion and subsequent reconditioning. Williams will serve as backup to Donovan Clingan.
Williams (reconditioning) is Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland for Sunday's game against the Suns, Sean Highkin reports. Williams cleared the concussion protocol earlier this week, but the big man is going through the process of recovering his conditioning to play. As such, a decision on his status will be made closer to Sunday's 8 p.m. ET tipoff. If he's not available, then Donovan Clingan, Duop Reath and Jabari Walker will log all the minutes available at center.
Williams (reconditioning) will not play in Friday's game against the Spurs, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports. Williams has presumably cleared the league's concussion protocols, but he will miss Friday's game as the team awaits him to get his conditioning back up to par. The absence will mark his seventh straight game on the sidelines. With Deandre Ayton (illness) also sidelined, Portland will lean on Donovan Clingan and Jabari Walker at center.
Williams is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs due to reconditioning. Williams was previously listed on the injury report with a concussion, though he has presumably cleared league protocols and remains a game-time decision as he works his way back to playing form. The big man has missed six consecutive outings, and he'll likely operate under a minutes restriction if he's able to return to game action Friday.
