Williams Probable vs. Bucks

Wednesday, Feb. 11

Williams returned for Sacramento's Wednesday night contest against the Milwaukee Bucks, as noted by Sean Cunningham of News 10 in Sacramento.


Williams Sustains Injury Tripping Over Cord 

Tuesday, Feb. 10

Jason Jones of The Sacramento Bee noted Williams was injured after tripping and would miss the Chicago game:

The Kings did not divulge the severity of Williams' sprain. They play again Wednesday night in Milwaukee, so it's possible they are expressing caution while on a back-to-back. It's also possible Williams sits out through the All-Star break to give him extra time to heal.

Williams, 23, is averaging 6.5 points and 2.5 rebounds per game. The former No. 2 overall pick is in his second season in Sacramento after a failed three-year stint with the Minnesota Timberwolves. After Sacramento acquired Williams on a buy-low deal with hopes of unearthing his potential, the experiment has largely gone bust.

Williams has struggled to be much more than a secondary big man and has seen his playing time wildly vary from night to night. Interim coach Tyrone Corbin has sat him twice on a coach's decision since Jan. 31.

Carl Landry and Jason Thompson will log a majority of minutes at the power forward spot with Williams out.
