Marvin Williams has not decided whether or not to pick up his player option for next season.
Williams would be forfeiting $7.5 million if he declined it to become an unrestricted free agent, and it's not a guarantee he'd be able to land anything more than a one-year deal. He's still best remembered as the guy who was picked ahead of Deron Williams and Chris Paul in 2005. Apr 19 - 10:03 AM

Date:

Marvin Williams (illness) was back in the Jazz's rotation Friday night.

Williams played 16 minutes, scoring four points to go along with three rebounds and two assists. In his current role, he has no value.
Apr 13 - 4:28 AM

Marvin Williams (illness) was able to return to practice on Thursday.

Williams was sent home on Tuesday with the flu, but he's feeling better and should be ready to play on Friday against the Timberwolves.
Apr 11 - 11:47 AM

Marvin Williams has been sent home with the flu, meaning he will not play on Tuesday.

He was doubtful, then in, and then out once his stomach flu acted up again. With Alec Burks also out, Gordon Hayward and Randy Foye, along with Mo Williams, should all put up some decent stats.
Apr 9 - 8:35 PM

Marvin Williams, who was listed as doubtful, will play through his illness on Tuesday against the Thunder.

Williams has no fantasy value of his own right now, but will eat slightly into the minutes of Gordon Hayward.
Apr 9 - 7:47 PM

Marvin Williams (illness) is doubtful to play against the Thunder on Tuesday.

Williams has played 10 minutes or fewer in two of the last three games he's suited up for, so his absence shouldn't really impact much in fantasy leagues.
Apr 9 - 12:46 PM

Marvin Williams (illness) did not practice on Monday.

It's not clear what his status is for Tuesday's game against the Thunder, but he played on Sunday night so he must have just come down with the illness. We're considering him questionable for now, but this shouldn't impact your fantasy league.
Apr 8 - 1:13 PM

Marvin Williams, who sat out Friday's game with right heel tendinitis, returned vs. the Warriors with three points in seven minutes off the bench.

With Gordon Hayward thriving as the starting SF, Williams has fallen so low in the Jazz rotation that we didn't even notice his absence on Friday. Hayward finished tonight's game with 13 points and six assists in 36 minutes.
Apr 7 - 10:50 PM

Marvin Williams is dealing with heel tendinitis, but he's expected to play on Friday.

He didn't practice on Thursday, but the issue sounds truly minor in nature. We don't expect it to be an issue for a guy who has no place on fantasy teams, but it's worth noting he's dealt with heel problems previously this year.
Apr 4 - 1:43 PM

Marvin Williams played through a heel injury and hit 2-of-6 shots for five points, four rebounds, three assists and a block in Wednesday's win.

Williams was iffy coming in but played through it, although that still doesn't mean he's worth owning in most fantasy leagues.
Mar 28 - 1:49 AM

Marvin Williams (heel) is expected to play on Wednesday.

Williams went through shootaround despite dealing with right heel bursitis, so we're not overly concerned about the issue. With Randy Foye a game-time call, Williams could get some extra run on Wednesday.
Mar 27 - 12:52 PM

Marvin Williams hit a three to send Friday's game to overtime, and finished with nine points on 4-of-9 shooting, nine rebounds and a steal in 35 minutes off the bench.

Williams is much too inconsistent for use in normal-sized formats, but he had a good outing tonight.
Mar 22 - 11:58 PM

Marvin Williams (hand) played on Monday, scoring 14 points on 5-of-8 shooting (including two threes) with six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 30 minutes off the bench.

Williams was productive and has made some slight noise in the past week, but his injury risk and normal pedestrian numbers should keep owners in a conservative stance. In a deeper league, give him a look but keep expectations in check.
Mar 12 - 12:10 AM

Marvin Williams bruised his right hand during Saturday's game but X-rays came back negative.

We'll list Marvin as 'questionable' to play on Monday, but we should have an update from the Jazz on Sunday. He has already lost his starting SF job to DeMarre Carroll and this injury is just one more reason to leave him on the waiver wire.
Mar 9 - 10:18 PM

Marvin Williams scored 14 points off the bench on Friday, hitting 6-of-10 shots (including two threes) with 10 rebounds and one steal in 27 minutes.

Williams' hand wasn't an issue tonight and this type of production has been very rare, so owners can safely ignore him for now.
