Will return Monday Williams (wrist) will make his return Monday against the Raptors, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Williams made just five appearances this season (all starts) before being sidelined due to a wrist injury. He averaged 6.6 points and 2.2 rebounds in 24.8 minutes per game during that stretch, but Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune relays that the second-year forward will come off the bench and play under a minutes restriction during his return to game action. Poe adds that Bulls head coach Billy Donovan didn't rule out the possibility of Williams playing the second half of Chicago's back-to-back against Milwaukee on Tuesday if everything goes according to plan Monday.

Impact Williams has not played since all the way back on Oct. 28 after undergoing wrist surgery, but he's in the final stages of his ramp-up plan and could be back on the floor for Chicago as soon as Monday's home matchup against Toronto. It's unclear if Williams will play for the Windy City Bulls in Sunday's G League matchup against Westchester or if he'll simply practice with the team while the Bulls finish out a three-game road swing in Phoenix on Friday night. Either way, Williams' return appears imminent, and he'll provide a major boost on the defensive end, in particular, with the postseason approaching.

Cleared for full contact According to Bulls' head coach Billy Donovan, Williams (wrist) has been cleared for full contact, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact Williams hasn't played since Oct. 28 due to wrist surgery, but it sounds like he could be on the verge of returning soon after being cleared for full contact Wednesday. Donovan indicated that Williams could practice with the Windy City Bulls while the Bulls are away on their road trip, so it looks like he'll start ramping up right away with the goal of returning to the court by the end of March.

Cleared for minimal contact Williams (wrist) has been cleared for minimal-contact workouts and may return to practice Friday, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact Williams will begin contact work for the first time since suffering the wrist injury at the end of October. Johnson relays that the 20-year-old's rehab process is still behind Alex Caruso, but barring any setbacks from his minimal-contact workouts, Williams should be back at practice by the end of the week. If he is cleared for full practices soon, his return to game action should be right around the corner.

Remains limited to non-contact work Bulls head coach Billy Donovan said Williams (wrist) took part in individual non-contact work during Sunday's practice, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact The update from Donovan represents no notable change in Williams' status, as the 20-year-old had already been working out on the court when the Bulls returned from the All-Star break. Until Williams gets the green light to take part in full-contact, full-court practices, his return to action shouldn't be viewed as imminent. The same applies to Lonzo Ball (knee) and Alex Caruso (wrist), who are all working out but have yet to graduate to full-contact work.
