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.

Williams (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Spurs.
Williams sat out of the second leg of the Hornets' back-to-back set Thursday against the Mavericks for maintenance purposes, but the veteran forward has been cleared to play in Saturday's contest. He was cleared to return Jan. 10 after fully progressing from a torn ACL in his right knee he sustained in December 2024, and since returning he is averaging 4.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 17.4 minutes per game.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Drills three treys in debut
Williams (knee) recorded nine points (3-10 FG, 3-10 3Pt) and eight rebounds in 14 minutes off the bench in Saturday's 150-95 win over the Jazz.
Suiting up for the first time all season after completing his recovery from Dec. 11, 2024 surgery to repair a torn meniscus and ACL in his right knee, Williams wasn't hesitant to fire away from deep. He connected on three triples and also rebounded well during his four shifts on the court before he checked out of the game for good with just under nine minutes left in the fourth quarter. As he gets ramped up, Williams should be capable of handling more playing time, though he may not be in line for a dramatic uptick from the 14 minutes he received Saturday now that the Hornets have all of their rotation players healthy for the first time all season.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Cleared to make 2025-26 debut
Williams (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Jazz.
Williams has fully recovered from a torn meniscus and ACL in his right knee that he suffered in November 2024. The veteran forward has been given the green light to make his 2025-26 regular-season debut Saturday, though he'll likely operate under a heavy minutes restriction as he works his way back to NBA-level conditioning. Tidjane Salaun, Sion James and Josh Green will likely see their playing time impacted by Williams' return.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Probable for Saturday
Williams (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against Utah.
After undergoing right knee surgery in December 2024, Williams is probable to make his season debut Saturday. The 27-year-old forward will likely face heavy restrictions whenever he's cleared to play. Still, Tidjane Salaun and PJ Hall are candidates to see fewer minutes once Williams returns to the lineup.
