Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) remains out on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. Fantasy managers didn't expect the big man to be out this long. However, he'll now miss his 15th consecutive game. Unfortunately, Williams will miss more time because of the back contusion, meaning Nick Richards will remain in the starting lineup for the foreseeable future. The 26-year-old has played well in his 15 appearances as a starter this season, averaging 8.9 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks. With production like that, Richards should be featured in all fantasy lineups, especially for category managers looking for boards and swats.
Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) has already been ruled out of Monday night's game against the Chicago Bulls. Usually, the team has been listing him as doubtful and then downgrading him the day of the game, but they didn't bother with that same song and dance this time around. There still isn't a timetable for Williams' return from his lower back contusion. There hasn't even been an update on how he feels and how much it's been limiting him from practice. So, while he sits out for a 14th consecutive game, Nick Richards will get the start at center again. Nathan Mensah saw some of the backup minutes in their last contest, while JT Thor could see some opportunities as well.
Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) will remain a spectator for Friday's matchup with the Chicago Bulls due to his lingering lower back contusion. With no end to his absence in sight, Williams appears to be out indefinitely rather than day-to-day at this point. Despite a streak of 12 consecutive games missed after Friday's action, the 22-year-old interior presence needs to be stashed in all nine-category fantasy leagues. Williams is posting fifth-round value in those 12-team formats. Nick Richards is the direct fantasy beneficiary of Williams' absence, averaging 9.2 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks in 13 starts this season.
Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Williams has missed over 10 games in a row due to a lower back contusion. It's uncertain when Williams will get back on the court, but for now fantasy managers should continue to consider him as day-to-day. In the meantime, Nick Richards will remain as the starting center and see a boost in fantasy value. Richards is well worth rostering in most fantasy formats while Williams is out.
Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) is tagged as doubtful to return from an absence of 11 consecutive games on Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings with a lower back contusion. Williams continues to pile up doubtful designations, insinuating that his return for Charlotte is not exactly imminent. Despite the lingering absence, the 22-year-old Duke product needs to be stashed in all fantasy leagues and hopes to return on Friday against the Chicago Bulls. In 12 starts without Williams this season, Nick Richards is collecting 9.4 points on 66.7% field-goal shooting, 8.3 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 29.4 minutes per contest for the short-handed Hornets and remains worth rostering for a stopgap source of boards and swats.
