2025 Fantasy Outlook
With the Mavericks' backcourt decimated by injuries, Williams, who was operating under a two-way deal, was thrust into action at the end of 2024-25. Over the final 15 games, including the Play-In Tournament, the backup point guard averaged 15.5 points, 4.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 steals while posting 55/39/86 shooting splits. Williams was awarded a standard deal before the postseason and will return to Dallas this season. Kyrie Irving is going to miss at least the first half of the campaign while recovering from a torn ACL, but Dallas brought in D'Angelo Russell to serve as the starting point guard until the veteran superstar is good to go. That leaves Williams competing for backup minutes with Dante Exum and Jaden Hardy. That's not an ideal spot to be in for fantasy purposes, but given what we saw from Williams to end last season, he has to at least be on radars heading into 2025-26. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $2.32 million contract with the Mavericks in April of 2025. 
Ruled out Sunday
Williams (illness) is unavailable for Sunday's game against Chicago.
ANALYSIS
Williams will now miss a fourth consecutive contest, marking the end of a career-best 2025-26 campaign. Without the 26-year-old, extra minutes will presumably be absorbed by Ryan Nembhard and AJ Johnson. Williams started 15 of his 66 appearances, and overall he averaged 13.0 points, 3.9 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 22.2 minutes per game.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Williams split 2021-22 between the NBA and the G League, where he lit it up with the Westchester Knicks to the tune of 22.6 points, 6.4 assists and 4.1 rebounds over 33.1 minutes per game early in the campaign. His effort earned him a 10-day look with Portland in late December and a two-way deal in late February. Williams took advantage of his opportunity with a banged-up Trail Blazers squad down the stretch, averaging 13.6 points, 4.2 assists, 3.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals over 28.5 minutes per contest after the All-Star break. However, he's unlikely to repeat that output this season with Portland healthier to open 2022-23, and the second-year guard may bounce between the NBA and the G League again this year. As a result, he is likely only an attractive fantasy option in the deepest of formats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Opportunity emerges sans Flagg
Williams was in the Mavericks' starting lineup for Thursday's 144-122 win over the Jazz and finished with 18 points, three assists, two rebounds and one block over 25 minutes.
ANALYSIS
Thursday was Williams' 10th start of the season and first since Nov. 24 against the Heat. He was moved into the starting lineup due to the absence of Cooper Flagg, who sprained his left ankle during the Mavericks' loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday. Dallas' next game takes place Saturday in a rematch against Utah, and Williams would likely remain in the Mavericks' starting five if Flagg is not cleared to return.
