Back in starting five Williamson will start Saturday's contest versus Virginis, Ethan Joyce of the Winston-Salem Journal reports.

Impact Williamson didn't start in his first game back from COVID-19 protocols Wednesday but seemed a likely inclusion Saturday after getting his feet wet. He could see a bump in playing time Saturday as a result, with Carter Whitt returning to a bench role for the Demon Deacons.

Will not start Wednesday Williamson (COVID protocols) is active Wednesday, but will not start, Les Johns of 247Sports.comreports.

Impact After missing the teams two previous games while in the Covid-19 protocols, Williamson is set to make his return to the floor.

Slated to sit again Williamson (undisclosed) is in line to miss Saturday's game against Syracuse Ethan Joyce of the Winston-Salem Journal reports.

Impact Williamson is at the game but has not been seen warming up for Wake Forest. Williams missed Tuesday's game against Florida State in COVID-19 protocols, but it is unclear if his likely absence today is for the same reason. The 6-foot-1 guard has started 14 games this season, averaging 12.9 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.3 steals on 30.9 minutes per game this season.

Won't play Tuesday Williamson is not available for Tuesday's game against Florida State, Ethan Joyce of the Winston-Salem Journal reports.

Impact Williamson's absence from the starting five was a peculiar one, but it makes more sense now that it's been revealed he's unavailable for the contest. Carter Whitt will join the starting lineup in his place, while Alondes Williams figures to see more time on the ball.

Posts strong scoring figures Williamson ended Wednesday's 73-69 loss to Louisville with 14 points (6-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt) and two rebounds in 31 minutes.

Impact Williamson has not looked as decisive or as productive as he was earlier this season when he registered double-digit scoring efforts in six of his first seven contests, but this was a strong performance nonetheless. The senior guard has improved on his numbers on a yearly basis, and he is scoring a career-best 13.5 points per game in 2021-22 so far.

Puts up 19 points over Va Tech Williamson totaled 19 points (8-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 35 minutes during Saturday's 80-61 victory over Virginia Tech.

Impact Williamson has scored in double digits in seven of his nine appearances this season, though to be fair, he hasn't done much outside of scoring with season-high marks of three rebounds, three assists and four steals thus far. As such, his upside will be heavily tied to his scoring ability. He's averaging a career-high 15.2 points per game.

Impact Williamson has scored in double digits in all but one of his appearances and has recorded 20 or more points twice already, so it's not surprising to see him putting up strong scoring figures. He's averaging 15.6 points per game in what has been a career-best season for the senior thus far.

Impact Williamson only had 10 points in the season opener, but he bounced back admirably in this one and was one of two players that carried the team offensively -- him and Alondes Williams combined for 56 of the team's 87 points. Williamson averaged 12.9 points per game last season but might very well surpass that tally in 2021-22.

Impact Williamson had a strong performance on both ends of the court, but his scoring exploits certainly stood out -- he surpassed the 20-point mark for the first time this season while also scoring in double digits for the fourth game in a row. He's averaging 18.5 points per game over that four-game span after enduring a tough start to the season.

Scores 11 points Sunday Williamson posted 11 points (3-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 4-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists and three steals across 39 minutes in Sunday's loss against Virginia Tech.

Impact Williamson scored in double digits for the third game but struggled from the field, although that was an issue that plagued the entire Wake Forest offense -- the Demon Deacons only shot 36.7 percent from the field and 30.4 percent from three-point range as a team. Williamson also recorded a season-high mark in steals in this contest and should remain one of Wake Forest's go-to players moving forward.

He has scored 15 or more points in three of his last five appearances, and the junior has emerged as one of Wake Forest's most reliable scoring threats on a game-to-game basis.
