Patrick Williams DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) is in danger of missing a third consecutive game on Thursday versus the Raptors. He's nursing a right ankle strain and is listed as questionable for the game. Williams didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, which is a bad sign regarding his availability for the Toronto game. With the Bulls healthy again, Williams has dropped to the bench, and there haven't been any standout performers in the second unit during his absence.

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) has been downgraded to out on Monday and will not face the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is his second consecutive absence due to the right ankle strain that he suffered against the Golden State Warriors. Williams has started in most of his games this year but it hasn't produced that much better of a fantasy performance to make him a must-roster player in shallower leagues. While he's sidelined, however, Ayo Dosunmu should receive more minutes like he did last game. He could be a solid streaming option after he produced 21 points, four assists, two rebounds, one steal, and two turnovers in the game against the San Antonio Spurs.

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Williams is dealing with a right ankle sprain, so it wouldn't be shocking if he missed more than just this game. His absence won't have too big of an impact on the rotation. Dalen Terry figures to have a bigger role with Williams unavailable. However, Terry doesn't offer enough upside to warrant streaming in most fantasy formats.

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (neck) and forward Patrick Williams (ankle) are both available for Wednesday's game versus the Houston Rockets. The Bulls' role players should both be good for their usual workloads, considering this matchup is neither the first nor second leg of a back-to-back, but they are trending down with Zach LaVine (foot) and Nikola Vucevic back in the fold. This contest also features the lowest implied point total (216.5) on Wednesday's 10-game slate by a wide margin, so this is probably not the right environment to dig into the bargain bin on either side for DFS purposes. Without a true point guard running the show amid Lonzo Ball's (knee) absence in the Windy City, Chicago's slow-paced offense sees them sit last in the Association in possessions per game (98.2).

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) couldn't practice on Sunday and is a question mark for Monday's meeting with the Hornets. Williams missed his first game of the season against Charlotte on Friday due to a right ankle strain. His absence gave a boost to Dalen Terry's fantasy stock as the 21-year-old logged his first career start. The first-round pick from 2022 registered eight points, four rebounds, and two steals in 21 minutes. It's a great matchup fantasy-wise, as Charlotte is ranked 28th in defensive efficiency and also offers a pace-up spot for the Bulls.
