Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams (ankle) won't play in Friday's matchup with the Celtics. He's battling a sprained right ankle. But with the Hornets having nothing left to play for, Williams likely won't see the floor again this season. With Nick Richards (foot) also out, Williams could have handled things at the five. But with both men out, Aleksej Pokusevski is nearly a lock for all DFS contests.
Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams (ankle) has received a questionable tag on Friday for a revenge game against the Boston Celtics. The former Celtic has been inconsistent to say the least, but he's hit a bit of a rhythm lately as he continues to be a starter for the Hornets. With a lot of the core not able to play, Williams is likely to get as many opportunities as possible if he plays in this game. It's unclear if the Celtics are going to be resting their starters since their injury report hasn't been submitted, but Williams' value would increase if that was the case. If he can't suit up, however, Davis Bertans and Aleksej Pokusevski would be quality streaming options.
Charlotte Hornets forward/center Grant Williams (ankle) has received the all-clear to play against the Magic on Friday. He's carrying a right ankle sprain, but the team has upgraded Williams from probable to available. The 25-year-old has been a starter for the last couple of games, putting in a pair of mixed performances. He was limited to only five points on Wednesday versus Portland but started the week with a 23-point effort against Boston. A meeting with the slow-paced Magic is a rough matchup for Williams, although he has put in sold work since moving to Charlotte, averaging 13.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in 30.1 minutes.
