Nov 20, 2024 6:23 pm: Williams (foot) has already been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Milwaukee and will also miss Chicago's back-to-back set Friday versus Atlanta and Saturday versus Memphis, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Analysis: Williams is dealing with inflammation in his left foot, which is notable after the 23-year-old underwent left foot surgery in February to address what was originally diagnosed as an acute bone edema, then deemed a stress reaction. Williams flare-up could align with combining for just 15 points (5-19 FG) across his last two games, which came on the heels of averaging a healthy 14.0 points on 48.9 percent shooting -- including 50.0 percent of 4.8 three-point attempts per game -- across his last five contests. Tuesday against Washington represents his next opportunity to take the court.
