With Jalen Smith (calf) sidelined for this game, Williams will return to the starting unit. He dished out a season-high eight assists in their last game, and he was productive in his most recent start. Williams hasn’t produced much this season, but he will hold some upside in this game.

Williams hasn’t done enough to merit trust in fantasy leagues, even with the Bulls clearly rebuilding. However, he did provide solid value in the assist category on Sunday, with the eight assists being a new season-high. If Jalen Smith (calf) has to miss time, Williams should be one of the players who benefits from an opportunity standpoint. However, he still hasn’t consistently shown the ability to take advantage of those situations.

The Bulls are severely shorthanded for Saturday’s game, with the absences creating three starting spots. Dosunmu, Huerter and Williams will start, filling in for Josh Giddey, Coby White and Nikola Vučević, and the Bulls are also without Jalen Smith. Of the three replacements, Dosunmu offers the highest ceiling, while managers can afford to leave Williams on the waiver wire.

Williams started Monday’s loss to the Pelicans, filling the void left by Nikola Vučević. He did not provide much production in that role and remains difficult to trust in any fantasy format. If Williams doesn’t play, Julian Phillips may pick up a few additional minutes off the bench, but it won’t be enough to make him fantasy-relevant.

The Bulls are without Nikola Vučević for Monday’s game, creating an opening in the starting lineup. However, they will go small, starting Williams at the five while Jalen Smith remains on the bench. Williams is not an exceptionally reliable fantasy option, but moving into the starting lineup makes him worth the risk.
