X-rays negative, deemed day-to-day Williamson (finger) underwent X-rays that came back negative Thursday, and he's considered day-to-day, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Williamson was unavailable in the closing minutes of Wednesday's loss to the Magic, and he's been diagnosed with a left middle finger contusion. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Friday's game against the Spurs, but even if he's sidelined, it doesn't appear as though he'll require a lengthy absence late in the regular season.

Impact Williamson took a brief trip to the locker room earlier in the contest after a collision with Gary Harris, but he was quick to return and it's unclear whether the incident was related to the finger injury. The lessened workload meant Williamson scored fewer than 20 points for just the second time in his last 14 appearances.

Impact Williamson led all players with 26 true possessions Tuesday. Williamson being careless with the rock is a notable blemish, but it's simultaneously a testament to how often the offense runs through him. Despite the stout rim protection of Chet Holmgren and the admirable physicality of Luguentz Dort, it's still a troubling trend that Williamson did not score in the final six minutes of Tuesday's narrow loss.
