Williams (ankle) tallied two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 15 minutes in Saturday's 130-110 loss to the Clippers.
Williams was back in action after missing the Jazz's last nine games due to a left ankle sprain. He took back a spot in Utah's 10-man rotation Saturday, but minutes could be more difficult to come by for Williams once the likes of Lauri Markkanen (back), John Collins (rest), Walker Kessler (shoulder) and Collin Sexton (ankle) return to action after all were sidelined against the Clippers.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Out at least one more week
Rotowire
The Jazz announced Wednesday that Williams (ankle) will re-evaluated in one week, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports.
Williams has missed the past four games with a left ankle sprain, and his one-week re-evaluation date rules him out for at least four more contests. Given that he hasn't played since Jan. 20, Williams could require a brief ramp-up period, even if he's cleared to resume on-court work once he's re-evaluated. The Jazz have made an effort to find minutes for the rookie first-round pick when he's been available this season, but he's struggled mightily with efficiency, shooting just 30 percent from the field and 23.8 percent from three-point range over 26 games.
