Hornets' Grant Williams: Will play Friday
Williams (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Heat.
Williams got the night off Wednesday in the second half of the team's back-to-back, but he'll be ready to roll for Friday's clash. The veteran forward is averaging 7.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 20 games since making his return from a torn meniscus and ACL on Jan. 10.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Sitting out Wednesday
Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Boston.
Williams will end up getting a maintenance day for the second leg of a back-to-back set after playing 21 minutes in Tuesday's 117-90 win over the Mavericks. With the veteran big man sitting out, the Hornets could have a few extra minutes available off the bench for Sion James and Josh Green.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Back to bench Tuesday
Williams is not in the Hornets' starting lineup against the Bulls on Tuesday.
The return of Miles Bridges from a four-game suspension will result in Williams reverting to a bench role. Williams started each of his last three outings, with his best performance taking place Thursday in a 105-101 loss to the Rockets, when he logged 20 points, nine rebounds, one assist and four three-pointers (on five attempts) over 29 minutes.

Williams missed Friday's game due to right knee injury management, but he will return to the lineup Sunday. Williams will get a third consecutive start due to Miles Bridges (suspension) being out. In his last two starts, he averaged 13.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 30.5 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Fades injury report
Williams (knee) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against Washington.
Williams sat out Friday's loss to Cleveland -- the second leg of a back-to-back set -- due to right knee injury management. However, he's set to return to action Sunday and could rejoin the starting five with Miles Bridges (suspension) unavailable. Williams has logged 25-plus minutes in three straight outings (two starts), averaging 13.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 28.7 minutes per tilt over that stretch.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Sitting out Friday
Williams has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers due to right knee injury management.
Since making his season debut Jan. 10 after completing his recovery from December 2024 surgery to repair a torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, Williams has yet to play in both ends of a back-to-back sets. He'll end up getting some rest Friday after he started and recorded 20 points (7-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes in Thursday's 105-101 loss to the Rockets. With Williams idle and with Miles Bridges serving the third contest of his four-game suspension Thursday, Tidjane Salaun looks to be the next man up at power forward for the Hornets.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Nearly secures double-double
Williams registered 20 points (7-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes during Thursday's 105-101 loss to the Rockets.
Williams fell just one rebound shy of his first double-double of the season while putting together a strong all-around performance. He's looked sharp in two starts while filling in for Miles Bridges (suspension), and he led the Hornets in points, rebounds and made treys Thursday night. Williams will have more opportunities to produce while Bridges serves the final two games of his four-game suspension.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Starting sans Bridges
Williams will start Wednesday's game against the Hawks.
With Miles Bridges (suspension) unavailable, Williams will get the starting nod for the first time this season. Through four February appearances, the seventh-year forward has averaged 10.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 19.3 minutes per tilt.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Strong performance in loss
Williams racked up 12 points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 25 minutes during Monday's 110-104 loss to the Pistons.
With Miles Bridges facing a suspension, and likely Moussa Diabate as well, Williams could be asked to step into a larger role for the Hornets, much like he did Monday. Williams is certainly on the radar as a short-term streaming option, but his workloads are unlikely to be massive with the team exercising caution with his knee.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Flirts with double-double
Williams produced 16 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 20 minutes during Monday's 102-95 victory over the Pelicans.
Williams had easily his best game of the season, falling one rebound short of a double-double. Since returning from a knee injury, Williams has slotted into a reliable, yet underwhelming bench role. In 10 appearances since getting back on the court, he has averaged 5.8 points and 4.0 rebounds in 17.7 minutes per game. We would need to see more efforts like this one before considering him a viable fantasy asset.
