Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Available for Monday
Williams (shoulder) will be available for Monday's game against the Pelicans.
Williams is no longer appearing on the injury report after missing Saturday's game against Charlotte, suggesting that his shoulder issue was minor. Oklahoma City's backup center is averaging 5.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 0.6 blocks in 19.0 minutes per contest this season.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Out with shoulder soreness
Williams (shoulder) is out for Saturday's game against the Hornets.
After not being listed on the initial injury report, Williams has been downgraded to out due to left shoulder soreness. Monday's matchup against the Pelicans marks his next chance to return to the court. Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein should share the center minutes Saturday, meaning Alex Caruso and Luguentz Dort could be needed to handle some playing time at power forward.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Productive off bench Tuesday
Williams recorded 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 126-102 win over the Warriors.
Williams matched his previous season-high scoring mark, but from a statistical perspective, this might have been Williams' best game of the campaign yet. The big man should continue to see steady minutes off the bench, but as the backup behind the Chet Holmgren-Isaiah Hartenstein duo, his fantasy upside is limited to being a streaming option in the deepest formats. Williams doesn't play enough minutes, nor does he produce enough to be a valuable fantasy option in standard formats.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Returns Tuesday
Williams (face) returned to Tuesday's game against the Clippers with 4:41 remaining in the third quarter, per the broadcast.
Williams took an elbow to the face and headed to the locker room in the first quarter. The big man reportedly needed stitches but returned to the bench with a black eye and a bandage in the second quarter before eventually checking back in during the second half. He appears good to go for the remainder of the game.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Exits to locker room Tuesday
Williams exited to the locker room after sustaining an apparent facial injury in the first quarter of Tuesday's game against the Clippers, independent NBA writer Justin Russo reports.
Williams caught an elbow to the face and headed back to the locker room after logging just over three minutes. If he's unable to return, Aaron Wiggins and Branden Carlson are candidates for a bump in minutes the rest of the way.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Won't start vs. LAC
Williams won't start in Tuesday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
With Chet Holmgren (back) back in action, Williams will retreat to the second unit. In six regular-season outings off the bench, the big man has averaged 4.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.0 assists across 17.0 minutes per contest.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Will play Tuesday
Williams (shoulder) has been cleared to play in Tuesday's game against the Clippers.
Williams is dealing with a shoulder issue that has threatened to keep him sidelined. However, he went through shootaround and will be available. He's currently averaging 5.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals per game, shooting 36.8 percent from the floor and 27.3 percent from deep.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Active at shootaround
Williams (shoulder) took part in Tuesday's morning shootaround, per Justin Martinez of The Oklahoman.
Williams is trending in the right direction ahead of Tuesday's showdown with the Clippers. With Chet Holmgren (back) available for Tuesday, Williams is likely to see fewer minutes and come off the bench if he's active.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Questionable for Tuesday
Williams is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Clippers due to a sprained left shoulder.
Williams must have tweaked his shoulder during Sunday's game against the Pelicans, and now he's in danger of missing Tuesday's contest. We'll have a better idea on his status based on his activity level at shootaround, but if he's not able to give it a go, Aaron Wiggins could see some extra minutes.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Productive in Sunday's start
Williams accumulated 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-9 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 137-106 win over the Pelicans.
After coming off the bench in the first six games of the season, Williams got his first start Sunday with Chet Holmgren (back) and Jalen Williams (wrist) unavailable. Jaylin responded to the opportunity by scoring in double digits for the first time in 2025-26, and he dished exactly four assists for the third straight game while recording at least one steal and one block in four straight. The fourth-year center could become a real fantasy asset given his broad skill set if he gets more consistent court time, and during that four-game stretch, he's averaging 6.5 points, 6.0 boards, 3.3 assists, 1.8 threes, 1.5 steals and 1.0 blocks in just 19.8 minutes a contest.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Entering starting five
Williams is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Rylan Stiles of SI.com reports.
Williams will make his first start of the season due to Luguentz Dort (illness) joining Chet Holmgren (back) and Jalen Williams (wrist) on the inactive list. Williams, an Arkansas product, has received steady minutes off the bench so far this year, averaging 4.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 17.0 minutes through six games.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Strong showing off bench
Williams closed Tuesday's 107-101 win over Sacramento with three points (1-6 FG, 1-6 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals in 17 minutes.
Although he couldn't get much going offensively, Williams made a huge impact on this game. Williams is attempting 3.6 three-pointers in just 16.0 minutes per contest to open the season, so it's clear that he has the green light to let it fly. Unfortunately for the big man, he's hitting them at a 16.7 percent clip right now.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Sees 15 minutes in win
Williams had five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes during Thursday's 141-135 double-overtime victory over Indiana.
Williams has seen a very minor role as Oklahoma City's backup center so far. Through two regular-season games, he's averaging 13.7 minutes per night with 3.5 points, 1.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists on 37.5 percent shooting from the field. He's not on the fantasy radar in standard formats for now.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Grabs seven boards in win
Williams (rest) notched eight points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, two assists and one block across 20 minutes in Friday's 94-91 preseason win over the Nuggets.
Williams returned to game action after sitting out Tuesday's win over Milwaukee. The big man led the Thunder in rebounds and was efficient from the field in the win. The 23-year-old signed a three-year, $24 million extension with the Thunder in June and is expected to back up Isaiah Hartenstein this season.

Williams (rest) has been ruled out for Tuesday's preseason game against the Bucks, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Bench role Thursday
Williams will come off the bench during Thursday's preseason game against the Hornets, Clemente Almanza of USA Today reports.
After starting the first two games of the preseason, Williams will be in the second unit. He finished with 14 points, six rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 28 minutes as a starter in Monday's loss to the Mavericks.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Posts 14 points in preseason loss
Williams compiled 14 points (5-14 FG, 4-11 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists and two blocked shots over 28 minutes in Monday's 106-89 loss to the Mavericks.
Williams flashed some of his perimeter skills with four three-pointers during the defeat, a facet that he's shown sparingly over his three-year tenure with the Thunder. The team gave the Arkansas product a hefty $24 million extension in the offseason, and we should see an uptick in minutes from the youngster after averaging only 16.7 minutes per game during the 2024-25 campaign. He will still be in a timeshare with Isaiah Hartenstein once the regular season begins.

Thunder's Jaylin Williams: Gets starting nod Sunday
Williams will start in Sunday's preseason game against the Hornets, James Plowright of CLTure.org reports.
With the team resting its usual starters, Williams will get the starting nod in Oklahoma City's preseason opener. The big man signed a three-year, $24 million extension this summer after averaging 5.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.6 assists across 16.7 minutes per game in 47 regular-season appearances (nine starts) during the 2024-25 campaign.
