Impact This transaction brings Miami's roster up to 20 players, one short of the maximum amount allowed. Williams had a small stint with Toronto in 2023-24, making seven regular-season appearances with averages of 2.7 points and 5.4 rebounds. He's likely to end up in the G League.

Signs with Toronto Williams signed with the Raptors on Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Impact The Raptors signed Williams to a 10-day contract earlier this month, and while the deal expired Saturday, Toronto decided to keep him on the roster for the final game of the campaign. In his six appearances for Toronto, Williams averaged 2.2 points and 5.7 rebounds in 15.8 minutes.

Deal expires Williams' 10-day contract with the Raptors expired Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Impact The Raptors have just one more game left this season, so it remains to be seen if Williams will receive another 10-day contract ahead of Sunday's finale versus the Heat. In his six appearances for Toronto, Williams is averaging 2.2 points and 5.7 rebounds in 15.8 minutes.

Shifts to bench Williams will come off the bench Friday night against the Heat.
Impact Williams posted a solid final line in Wednesday's start against the Nets, recording seven points, 14 rebounds, one assist and two steals over 24 minutes. However, he'll retreat to a bench role following the return of Kelly Olynyk from a maintenance day.

Quality outing in start Williams notched seven points (3-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt), 14 rebounds, one assist and two steals across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 106-102 loss to the Nets.
Impact Williams made just his fifth appearance and second start of the season for Toronto on Wednesday since signing a 10-day contract. Across his five outings, the 25-year-old big man is averaging 2.6 points and 6.0 rebounds in 15.2 minutes. With Kelly Olynyk (rest) likely to return to action Friday, Williams should serve as the Raptor's backup center for the final two games of 2023-24.

Coming off bench Williams will return to his usual reserve role in Friday's game against Milwaukee.
Impact Williams is coming off a spot start where he accumulated zero points (0-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 31 minutes. With Kelly Olynyk back at center, the big man will once again come off the bench.

Goes scoreless in starting role Williams registered zero points (0-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 133-85 loss to the Timberwolves.
Impact The Raptors put Williams to work right away after signing a 10-day contract with the team before tip-off. The Louisville product has been an apt scorer and rebounder for the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce, and the 10 -day deal will keep him on the roster until the conclusion of the season. He obviously had little time to prepare for this start, but the team will see how the 6-11 big man fares against stiffer competition as they consider their options for next season.

Starting Wednesday Williams will enter the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Impact Fresh off inking a 10-day deal, Williams will be jettisoned into the first unit with Gary Trent (back) unavailable Wednesday evening. Across 42 games with the Sioux Falls Fkyforce of the G League this season, Williams compiled averages of 10.1 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.3 blocks, 1.2 assists, 0.9 three-pointers and 0.7 assists per contest, so he could be worth a dart throw in daily fantasy leagues.
