Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams had a fantastic all-around performance on Monday against New Orleans as the team completed a first-round sweep with a 97-89 road victory. Williams tied Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for most points in the contest with 24, grabbed eight rebounds, and tallied four assists, two steals, and one block. The 23-year-old Santa Clara product has been hugely impressive in his first postseason campaign. He's averaging a team-high 1.8 steals and also sits among the Thunder leaders with 21.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 5.0 assists.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams was effective all over the court in Wednesday's Game 2 victory over the Pelicans, scoring 21 points and registering five rebounds and one steal with a game-high seven assists. He was 1-for-3 with the three-ball and shot 10-for-17 from the field. Williams played a significant role as the Thunder had a historic outing -- for the first time ever in the NBA playoffs, a team had all of its points scored by players aged 25 or younger. It's been a strong start for Williams in the series, as he is averaging 20.0 points with 6.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1.5 steals.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) was spotted at shootaround ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings. Sidelined for four consecutive games with a sprained left ankle, Williams is on the right track to return against the Kings on Tuesday. It's worth mentioning Williams was seen at the morning session prior to last Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers before getting ruled out, so sometimes shootaround statuses should be taken with a grain of salt. The 22-year-old two-way rising star is averaging 22.0 points, 5.3 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.1 three-pointers, and 2.6 combined steals plus blocks through his last seven games and would be an interesting DFS bet on Tuesday's huge 14-game slate if he is active against Sacramento, who are yielding the ninth-most points (22.0) to opposing small forwards in 2023-24.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (ankle) has been listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Sacramento. He's missed the past four games with a left ankle sprain. Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault has tested several players in a starting role during Williams' absence, including Gordon Hayward (leg). He won't be able to go back to Hayward on Tuesday as he has been ruled out for the contest. Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe will continue to have extra fantasy value if Williams can't play. If he is able to return, the 22-year-old will find himself in a good matchup against a team that likes to run but can't defend.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (ankle) will be absent for a third straight game on Friday versus Indiana. The team has downgraded Williams from questionable to out as OKC's rising star continues to deal with a left ankle sprain. Oklahoma City also remains without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (quadriceps), putting the spotlight on Josh Giddey and Chet Holmgren to lead the team. The injuries have allowed Aaron Wiggins and Jaylin Williams to pick up starts, but the two haven't been very reliable performers for fantasy managers.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Williams is set to miss a third consecutive contest due to a sprained left ankle, with one more shot to return during fantasy's championship round arriving on Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets. There have been no clear-cut fantasy beneficiaries of the 22-year-old rising star's prior absences in head coach Mark Daigneault's deep rotations, but Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah Joe are candidates to start for OKC in a favorable situation against Indiana's shoddy defense. Wiggins has started three of his past five games for the banged-up Thunder, averaging 12.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.2 treys on 50.0% shooting from deep during this stretch. Ahead of Friday's 12-game slate, there should be more well-rounded options available to fantasy managers on waiver wires.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) is listed as out for Wednesday's tilt against the Boston Celtics. Williams will be unavailable on the second leg of OKC's back-to-back due to a sprained left ankle, with his next opportunity to take the court arriving on Friday against the Indiana Pacers. Head coach Mark Daigneault has mixed and matched his rotation when Williams has been sidelined in the past, so there likely won't be a clear-cut fantasy beneficiary of his absence in a dismal matchup against a Celtics squad that sits second in the league in opponent field-goal percentage (45.3%). Gordon Hayward and Jaylin Williams are candidates to start for the Thunder and are worth a look on waiver wires for desperate fantasy managers, though.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Williams appeared to be on track to play through a sprained left ankle after he was spotted at the morning shootaround, but he'll miss his first game since March 12 and aim to return on the second night of OKC's back-to-back for a showdown with the first-place Boston Celtics. Veteran Gordon Hayward is the most likely candidate to get the spot start at the four after doing so when Williams was last out in March 12's loss to the Indiana Pacers. Across 25 games as a starter for the Charlotte Hornets this year, Hayward averaged 14.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.1 steals, and 0.9 threes and should be considered a solid fantasy streamer in a neutral matchup against the Sixers.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) was present at the morning shootaround ahead of Tuesday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. Williams hasn't missed a game since March 12, and he's trending in the right direction to play on Tuesday despite a sprained left ankle. The 22-year-old 2022 first-rounder is posting third-round fantasy value in nine-category leagues since March 20, averaging 22.0 points, 5.3 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.1 three-pointers, and 2.6 combined steals plus blocks over his last seven games. If he doesn't suit up against Philly, veteran Gordon Hayward figures to draw the spot start at power forward after doing so when Williams was last out on March 12, collecting nine points, five assists, and four boards in 29 minutes in that one.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers while he deals with an ankle sprain. He's carried an injury designation a handful of times this season but he hasn't missed a game since March 12. Williams seems to be more of a game-time decision, so fantasy managers will have to stay tuned leading up to tipoff. If he's unable to play, Cason Wallace would move into the starting five while Isaiah Joe and Gordon Hayward would both get some extra opportunities in a reserve role.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's clash with Dallas, which signals that he's ready to return to the lineup following a one-game absence. Williams hurt his right ankle on Sunday versus Memphis and had to miss Tuesday's juicy matchup against the Pacers. Gordon Hayward logged 30 minutes as a starter in Williams' place and will drop back to the bench on Thursday. The Mavericks complete a back-to-back and might be without Luka Doncic (hamstring), so Williams and the Thunder are well-placed for a good outing. The 22-year-old has averaged 16.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 6.0 assists in head-to-head clashes with Dallas this season.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) participated in the team's morning shootaround ahead of Tuesday's tilt versus the Indiana Pacers. Williams remains formally listed as questionable for action due to the sprained right ankle he suffered early in Sunday's blowout win over the Memphis Grizzlies, but fantasy managers can tentatively place him on the right side of the tag with this development. The 22-year-old two-way rising star is returning second-round numbers in nine-category leagues through his last dozen games, averaging 20.7 points, 4.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.8 treys, and 2.0 combined steals and blocks. Tuesday's clash features the highest implied point total (240.5) on the seven-game slate.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (ankle) is questionable to play on Tuesday versus Indiana. The versatile 22-year-old hurt his right ankle in Sunday's matchup against Memphis, exiting the game after logging just 10 minutes. However, it looks like there is a possibility he won't have to skip any games. Williams has become a key cog for the Thunder, averaging 20.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 4.3 assists across his last 12 appearances. A meeting with the Pacers is always a great spot for players to boost their numbers. If Williams can't play, Gordon Hayward might get a chance to slide into the starting unit, with the likes of Isaiah Joe and Cason Wallace getting extra minutes off the bench.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) landed awkwardly on a cameraman in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He promptly went back to the locker room and the team announced it was a sprained right ankle and he would not return to the game. Cason Wallace was the one to start in his place for the second half as the Thunder were having an easy time with the short-handed Grizzlies. It seems more than likely that Williams will miss at least one game with a sprained ankle, but the official report will probably come out on Monday. If that's the case, Wallace and Josh Giddey would both see more opportunities and could be solid streaming options.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Williams appears to be on track to return after missing each of the last three games. It's uncertain if Williams would be under a minute limit if he's able to suit up. Kenrich Williams would see a reduced role in the rotation if Williams can play. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Tuesday for another update.

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (ankle) is officially listed as out for Friday's meeting with the Charlotte Hornets. No surprise here, as head coach Mark Daigneault said on Wednesday that he'd be surprised if Williams played in the next couple of games as the second-year swingman tends to a sprained right ankle that he suffered during Monday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Williams, averaging 18.0 points, 4.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.4 triples, and 1.1 steals for the Thunder in Year 2, will look to avoid a third consecutive absence in Saturday's game versus the Toronto Raptors, but he sounds to be very questionable for that one. Kenrich Williams replaced Williams in OKC's starting five in Wednesday's win over the Denver Nuggets but was held scoreless in 16 minutes and isn't a recommended streaming option in fantasy hoops.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (hip) will miss a third game in a row Saturday versus the 76ers. Williams is off to a fantastic start to the season, but a hip issue has sidelined him, and it's unclear when he will be able to return. The 22-year-old is second on the team in scoring with 17.5 points and has recorded 4.1 rebounds with 3.6 assists. Rookie Cason Wallace has started the past two games in Williams' absence, but he hasn't been very productive with his minutes. Isaiah Joe, on the other hand, has been on fire off the bench and deserves consideration by fantasy managers.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (hip) will not play in Wednesday's game versus the Chicago Bulls. A left hip strain will keep Williams in the seats for another game, after he missed Sunday's 134-91 road rout of the Portland Trail Blazers with the injury. The balanced 22-year-old is averaging 17.5 points, 3.6 dimes, and 1.1 treys this season. Fantasy managers hope the defensive prowess Williams showed during his rookie campaign comes to light again at some point, with his 1.0 combined steals and blocks this year down from his robust 1.9 figure in this area from a season ago. First-round rookie Cason Wallace entered head coach Mark Daigneault's starting five with just two points in 20 minutes during Williams' absence on Sunday, but the smoking-hot Isaiah Joe, who's shooting a stratospheric 77.3% on 4.4 average three-point attempts through his last five nights, is worth streaming for points and threes on Wednesday.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Jalen Williams was ruled out of their summer league matchup on Wednesday, according to Steve McGehee. Williams most likely received a rest day since the team knows what he brings to the table at this point after a very good rookie season. There's no reason for any dynasty managers to freak out right now. The 22-year-old will likely remain in his current role as a starter for the up-and-coming Thunder, who also get Chet Holmgren back this coming season.

Oklahoma City Thunder swingman Jalen Williams amassed 21 points on 8-of-14 shooting from the field with four rebounds, two assists, one block, and three three-pointers in Monday's 95-85 Summer League win over the Utah Jazz. The 22-year-old has little to prove in terms of garnering a starting spot with the Thunder this fall, but it's certainly nice to see him stay sharp this summer. After a slow start last season, Williams took the starting role and ran with it. The versatile wing accumulated 15.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.1 threes and 1.7 steals over 32.3 minutes per game in his last 53 games of the 2022-2023 campaign. Williams figures to be a fixture in the middle rounds of upcoming rotisserie-league drafts.
