Williams

Williams will remain sidelined for what could be the Suns’ final game of the season, as they go into Game 4 in a 0-3 hole. Oso Ighodaro has been the replacement in the starting lineup, and that should remain the case on Monday.

Williams still hasn’t played since the first Play-In game. With the 24-year-old center sidelined in Game 2, Oso Ighodaro started and had seven points and eight rebounds in 29 minutes. Ighodaro will likely remain in the starting lineup as long as Williams is out.

The Suns will be without their starting center for a second straight game, as they look to avoid falling behind two games in the series. Williams has not played since the first of two Play-In Tournament games, which the Suns lost to the Trail Blazers. Oso Ighodaro will likely start again in Williams’ spot.

Williams missed Sunday’s Game 1 loss to the Thunder with a sore left foot. Oso Ighodaro and Khaman Maluach combined for zero points in 41 minutes in Williams’ absence. The 24-year-old center remains questionable for Game 2. Ighodaro will likely start again if Williams is ruled out.

Williams will miss a second consecutive game as he continues to deal with a sore left foot. Oso Ighodaro started Friday’s Play-In victory over the Warriors, logging 26 minutes. He’ll take on a similar role for Game 1, while Khaman Maluach may play more than the five minutes that he did the last time out because of Oklahoma City’s interior depth.

After logging 22 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers, Williams was held out of Friday’s win over the Warriors. Oso Ighodaro played 26 minutes as the starting center, with the Suns going small for extended periods. Given the matchup, there may be more minutes available to Khaman Maluach if Williams remains out.

With Mark Williams out due to a foot injury, Ighodaro will get the start. The second-year big man averaged 6.5 points and 5.1 rebounds per game during the regular season and could play an important role in helping the Suns extend their season and earn a playoff matchup against the Thunder.

The Suns will be without their starting center on Friday, with their season on the line. Williams played 22 minutes in the Play-In Tournament loss to the Trail Blazers. In his absence, Oso Ighodaro will likely fill in as Phoenix’s starting center.

Williams, who sat out the Suns’ last regular-season game, logged 22 minutes in Tuesday’s loss to the Trail Blazers. Oso Ighodaro was his replacement in the starting lineup on most nights during the regular season, and that should remain the case on Friday if Williams can’t play.

Williams will be sidelined for the season finale, which means Khaman Maluach may make a return to the starting unit. He had 14 rebounds and three blocks in 30 minutes as a starter on Wednesday.
