Picks up bruised shoulder
Williams is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Magic due to a left shoulder contusion.
Analysis
Williams presumably picked up the injury at some point over his last few appearances. Isaiah Hartenstein's (calf) availability is also in question, which could open the door for Branden Carlson at center if the Thunder are forced to play short-handed Tuesday.

Full stat line off bench
Williams logged eight points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 24 minutes during Sunday's 121-111 victory over the Nuggets.
Analysis
After starting three consecutive games, Williams moved back into a bench role to make way for Isaiah Hartenstein on Sunday. Williams is ticketed for a reserve spot as long as Oklahoma City's frontcourt is healthy, and he's averaged 6.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 0.8 blocks in 19.5 minutes per contest in his last six games off the bench.
