Williams had better production in his second appearance of the season and was one of several Grizzlies players to provide value off the bench against the Raptors on Sunday. In just 21 minutes of action, his efficient shooting and contributions from beyond the arc allowed him to finish as one of Memphis’ top scorers on the evening, while also concluding as one of the team’s better facilitators. As Williams logs more game reps after a heel injury forced him to miss the beginning of the season, there’s a chance his workload and production could increase going forward.

Williams has yet to appear in a game this season, but that may change on Wednesday. While he can provide additional depth on the perimeter, Williams is unlikely to get the run needed to impact fantasy basketball. Leave him on the waiver wire.

Williams will miss a second straight game to start the season. It’s unclear how large of a role Williams will have when he’s healthy, but for now, Cedric Coward will continue to play a significant reserve role.

Unfortunately, Williams’ struggles to stay healthy persist, as he won’t play in Wednesday’s season opener. The Grizzlies wing only appeared in 27 games last season, making five starts. Williams’ absence likely means more minutes for rookie Cedric Coward, who offers a high long-term fantasy upside. Jaylen Wells, who’s in the starting lineup, should see his fantasy ceiling rise, especially with Ja Morant making his first appearance after missing the preseason with a sprained ankle.

V-Dub has missed three straight games due to an illness, but his appearance at practice bodes well for his availability on Tuesday against the Hornets. If he’s able to go, expect him to handle his normal allotment of minutes.

Williams is set to miss his third straight game with an illness. Luke Kennard figures to see additional minutes with Williams out, though with the Grizzlies’ deep rotation of players that doesn’t necessarily make him fantasy-relevant in standard leagues.

Williams’ continued absence means Luke Kennard should play additional minutes off the bench again. However, he logged 22 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Warriors, which is not enough to make an impact in most fantasy leagues.

Williams Jr. was a late addition to the injury report and will now be held out of Tuesday’s game. Luke Kennard and Cam Spencer should take on extra minutes with Williams Jr. out, but only Kennard has streaming appeal.

Williams is available after sitting out Saturday’s win over the Heat, which was Memphis’ second game in as many days. He played 18 minutes off the bench against the Cavaliers on Friday, and fantasy managers should expect a similar workload for Williams. That isn’t enough to make him worth the streaming risk in most leagues.

Williams came off the injured list earlier this week and played 18 minutes in the Grizzlies’ loss to the Cavaliers on Friday. The 24-year-old shooting guard is doubtful for Saturday with a foot injury. GG Jackson could see additional playing time with Williams likely to miss the game.

After starting on Sunday, Williams Jr. missed the second leg of the Grizzlies’ back-to-back on Monday. That allowed GG Jackson to start and for Cam Spencer to play a larger role off the bench. Williams Jr. may replace Jackson in the starting lineup and limit Spencer’s minutes.

Williams dealt with a knee injury that kept him out two weeks ago, but made multiple spot starts with Santi Aldama out last week. Unfortunately, the 24-year-old shooting guard finds himself out again, now with a foot injury. Scotty Pippen Jr. could see increased minutes with Williams out and is likely the better fantasy option anyway.

The Grizzlies were without Santi Aldama (calf) for Sunday’s game, so Williams made his second start of the season. Unfortunately, the third-year wing could not find his shot. Scotty Pippen Jr. (12/6/2/2/1 with two three-pointers) provided greater value off the bench despite Ja Morant being available. The Grizzlies take on the Suns on Monday night, so Williams may return to the bench.

The Grizzlies are without Santi Aldama, who is dealing with a calf injury, meaning another replacement is needed to fill the void initially left by Jaren Jackson Jr. Williams receives the nod, but GG Jackson should also figure more prominently in the rotation.

With Jaren Jackson Jr. (ankle) and Santi Aldama (calf) unavailable, Williams was tabbed to make his first start of the season on Wednesday. He didn’t have the best night, but the Grizzlies wing scored in double figures for the third time this season. Williams’ streaming staying power depends on the health of Jackson and Aldama, with the former considered week-to-week and the latter day-to-day. Wednesday’s performance wasn’t good enough to make Williams a must-add, but deep-league managers should watch for the injury report ahead of Friday’s game against the Mavericks.

Morant returns to action after missing two games with a shoulder injury, which pushes Luke Kennard to the bench. The other notable change is Williams, who steps into the void left by the injured Jaren Jackson Jr. (ankle). While a risky streaming option, Vince is worth a look in deep leagues.

Williams and Clarke are back after sitting out Saturday’s loss to the Spurs. The returns give Memphis a welcome infusion of depth off the bench, even if neither player significantly impacts fantasy basketball.
