Tue Mar 3119:32Ziaire Williams Moves into Starting Five
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams will shift back into the starting five ahead of Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Williams is back in the rotation after sitting out Sunday's game due to a coach's decision. Williams will move back into the starting five with Terance Mann (Achilles) unavailable on Tuesday. Williams has scored 16 points or more in five straight games before getting benched on Sunday. When active, Williams is a decent streaming option and figures to play 20-plus minutes in the rotation without Mann available.

Fri Mar 2018:33Ziaire Williams to Play on Friday
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams (foot) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Williams will shake off the questionable tag and suit up despite dealing with left foot soreness. The Nets are shorthanded right now, so Williams will likely be asked to play an expanded role. Over the last three games, Williams is averaging 7.0 points and 1.3 steals across 20.2 minutes per game. Williams isn't anything more than a low-end streaming option in deep leagues right now.

Mon Feb 2318:12Ziaire Williams Slated to Suit Up Tuesday
According to Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com, Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ziaire Williams (personal) will be available for Tuesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. The 24-year-old missed the previous two contests due to a personal matter. Williams is averaging 9.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.2 steals in 22.9 minutes across 39 appearances this season. Even with his return, he is unlikely to carry meaningful fantasy appeal in most formats.

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ziaire Williams (conditioning) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. The 24-year-old recently missed time due to illness and is now working on his conditioning to get back into game shape. Sunday's game will Mark Williams' sixth consecutive absence. Brooklyn will also be without Michael Porter Jr. (rest) and Drake Powell (knee) on Sunday, which should create more playing opportunities for Danny Wolf, Terance Mann, and Nolan Traore.

Mon Jan 1218:39Ziaire Williams Misses Second Straight Game
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ziaire Williams (illness) will miss a second straight game on Monday against the Dallas Mavericks. He is battling an illness and will end up sitting out both games of a back-to-back set.

Bizarrely, Williams dropped out of the rotation after being a starter in the previous contest. He will get three more opportunities this week to rejoin the lineup.

As a reserve, Williams does not have any fantasy value.

Wed Oct 29 202510:17Ziaire Williams Uncertain for Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ziaire Williams (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. Due to a lower back contusion, the Nets may have to be without Williams for a second straight game. Williams has notched 10.3 points coming off the Brooklyn bench, but his 25-point performance against the Cleveland Cavaliers has skewed his averages. If Williams isn't available on Wednesday, Tyrese Martin and Jalen Wilson may see increased playing time.

Mon Jun 30 202518:18Ziaire Williams Expected to Return to Nets
ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Brooklyn Nets forwardZiaire Williams is expected to sign a two-year, $12 million contract to stay with the Nets. Over the weekend, the organization declined Williams's $8.35 million qualifying offer. He would have become an unrestricted free agent, but the two sides have since come to terms on a two-year deal. The 23-year-old finished with 10.0 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.6 three-pointers, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 24.5 minutes per game across 63 outings last season.

Fri Mar 28 202517:57Ziaire Williams Available On Friday
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams (illness) will suit up on Friday versus the Clippers. Williams is coming off a rough outing, scoring 13 points while shooting 4-for-14 from the field and 2-for-9 from downtown. He popped up on the injury report because of an illness. Fortunately, Brooklyn will have him in the lineup. With Cam Thomas (hamstring) done for the year, Williams has stepped things up offensively. Yet, with D'Angelo Russell and Cameron Johnson available, Williams isn't a lock to do anything meaningful for fantasy managers.

Mon Mar 24 202510:30Ziaire Williams Questionable On Monday Versus Mavericks
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams (hamstring) received a questionable status for the matchup with the Dallas Mavericks on Monday. The fourth-year wing is experiencing some hamstring tightness which kept him out of their last game on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers. Tyrese Martin took Williams' spot in the starting five against the Pacers and registered nine points, five assists, and four rebounds. Martin is a bit inconsistent as a streaming option, but if Williams can suit up, Martin's value will dip back down. Keon Johnson and Jalen Wilson serve as better options for fantasy managers looking to fill injury voids.

Sat Mar 22 202516:30Ziaire Williams Out On Saturday Night
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams (hamstring) won't play on Saturday versus the Indiana Pacers. He tied D'Angelo Russell for a team-high 22 points when these clubs met on Thursday night. However, Brooklyn won't have either player on the floor on Saturday night. Head Coach Jordi Fernandez indicated both are being held out for precautionary reasons and are considered day-to-day, meaning there's a chance they might play on Monday against the Dallas Mavericks. But as far as the rematch is concerned, Keon Johnson and Cameron Johnson could finish the night as Brooklyn's leading scorers. Tyrese Martin may also spend some time at the one, resulting in a bump in usage.

Williams will miss a second consecutive contest due to an ankle sprain he suffered on Sunday against the Thunder.

Mon Jan 20 202519:02Ziaire Williams Ruled Out For Tuesday
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Williams has played in 10 straight games, but he appears to have picked up an ankle injury during Sunday's contest. As a result, Williams will sit out on Tuesday, but hopefully it'll only be a one-game absence for Williams. His absence should mean that Keon Johnson and Jalen Wilson see increased minutes in the rotation. Wilson should move into the starting five for at least one game which should give him increased streaming appeal for Tuesday's slate.

Thu Jan 2 202513:41Ziaire Williams Ready To Return To Action
Brooklyn Nets guard Ziaire Williams (knee) has been sidelined for the last 12 games due to a left knee sprain, but he is not listed on the team's injury report for Thursday night against the Bucks. Williams hasn't played since December 1, so the 23-year-old may need some time to ramp up to a full workload, but the Nets could have available minutes on the wing after all their trades and roster shuffling. Noah Clowney (back) is also questionable for Thursday while Ben Simmons (injury management) is out, which could open up more time for Williams. After being traded from the Grizzlies to the Nets, Williams has averaged 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists, and 1.0 steals in 21.9 minutes over 21 games for the Nets. His return could eventually take time away from Keon Johnson and Tyrese Martin.

Mon Sep 30 202412:35Ziaire Williams Feels "Free" Ahead Of Nets Debut
Brooklyn Nets forward Ziaire Williams was traded from the Memphis Grizzlies this off-season and has prepared to earn some more opportunities to be on the floor. The former 10th overall pick said that he felt like "a loose bird finally let out of his cage" when he was traded. He also went on to say that he felt trapped at times with the Grizzlies as he struggled to get on the floor that often throughout his three seasons with the team. While the Nets are in rebuild mode, Williams should receive plenty of opportunities to prove whether or not he deserves to be on the floor after they traded away Mikal Bridges and now have one of the younger teams around the league. In 150 total appearances (50 starts) for the Grizzlies, Williams averaged 7.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.2 assists across 19.6 minutes per game.
