Gradually ramping up activity Williams (knee) is working in a 1-on-1 setting, and the plan is to ramp up his activity over the next week or so, Drew Hill of The Daily Memphian reports.

Impact Williams can be ruled out for the next week or more as a result, leaving the Grizzlies shorthanded in the frontcourt early in the campaign, especially with Dillon Brooks (thigh) also still out. John Konchar may be in line for extended run again Friday in their absences.

Remains sidelined Friday Williams (knee) won't take part in Friday's game against the Rockets.

Impact Williams is working through minor knee soreness and took part in practice Monday, so it doesn't seem like he should be sidelined too long. While he won't don the uniform Friday, he only has to wait 24 hours for his next chance to suit up Saturday against the Mavericks. David Roddy, Brandon Clarke and Jake LaRavia are among the candidates to see additional run in his absence.

Ruled out for season opener Williams (knee) won't play in Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Knicks.

Impact Williams is still tending to a sore right knee, which kept him sidelined for last week's preseason finale. With Williams unavailable and Dillon Brooks (thigh) listed as doubtful, John Konchar and David Roddy are candidates for increased playing time. Though Williams won't be available for the opener, the Grizzlies still envision him being a key rotation player during the upcoming campaign. Memphis made it clear with the decision to exercise Williams' third-year option for 2023-24 on Saturday.

Gets starting nod Saturday Williams is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

Impact The Grizzlies are resting most of their regulars, so Williams will have a chance to impress the coaching staff and perhaps prove he deserves a bigger role once the regular season kicks in. He averaged 8.1 points and 2.1 rebounds per game as a rookie last season.
